CNET Editors' review
Evocative of early RPG quests, Geneforge is nonetheless immersive. The requisite search-and-destroy mission focuses on a magician pursuing the evil forces that have conquered his homeland. A tried-and-true plot, to be sure, but here our protagonist is on his own, without support from comrades or allies. The game is absorbing from the outset, and controls are easy. Strategy loyalists will find Geneforge retains the magic of yesteryear.

"One of the best"
Version: Geneforge 1.0.1
Summary
I'm a fan of all the Spiderweb Software games I've played, and Geneforge is no exception. With their standard strategy/RPG format, this game is just as good as, and in many ways better than, their previous games. Exellent playability, sound, graphics, and interface among other things. I highly recommend this game to all RPG and Strategy game fans.

Version: Geneforge 1.0.1

I love the fact that you can create your own army of creatures! It took me awhile to get used to moving my character with the mouse but other than that its an awesome game!

"Great, is the first game where u chose whether u r good or bad."
Version: Geneforge 1.0.1
Summary
First than all, Scorpio Thank u a lot, that helped. I have already passed the demo and I'm ready to buy it. It's hard at first and I got so mad when the little tramps killed me, that it's just wrong, butafter u get used to, u can kill it easily, which makes the game great, i mean who would want to play a game that it's too easy? i knowi wouldn't. Well I think that everyone should try at least the ddemo because it's good, u choose what u wanna do, who u want to help, or if u dont wanna help at all. that's nice. I hope u buy it, I will
bye

Version: Geneforge 1.0.1
Summary
This game is a CHEAT! The bandits are so impossible to defeat and they r worthless. The shaper or recycled toilet paper u play as has less brains than a privy. DO NOT BUY!
P. S: S. Software makes half baked games and cookies. -

"A+++++++++++++"
Version: Geneforge 1.0.1
Summary
defintly worth it.my favorite part was all the monsters you could create (tons upon tons) but you need to look carefully because there are many places you can get too but they are sometimes hard to find.the game is fairly easy however its a great game non-the-less by the way there are cheats for it that you can access by pressing shift+d and then typing in "what you want" ex: iwanttobestronger=automatically gives you exp. healmenow=your whole group is automatically healed. dbugkill=kills all the monsters in the area but gives YOU the exp. iloveserviles=all serviles think you respect them thus they are more helpful. ihateserviles=the opposite of what i just wrote.
there are many more codes but to list all of them would be pointless. c u later :) hope this was helpful. -
