Reviewed by: CNET Staff
Fantasy games were among the very first computer games created, and the appeal of medieval adventuring has never died. QuadQuest explores much the same territory as other turn-based fantasy titles, but its clunky game play makes it a poor choice in today's market. To start, players assemble a squad of six adventurers, choosing race and class, and distributing skill points among attributes such as strength, agility, and intelligence.
After a quick stop to buy some medieval gear and load up on spells and potions, battles against monsters begin immediately. Once the beasties are slain and their bodies looted, players go back to the shop to buy more expensive weapons. All of this takes place on a very simple level. The characters themselves do not gain in strength or other attributes. Missile weapons have infinite ammunition, and items are infinitely durable.
The game's graphics use only 16 colors, and there is no animation for characters, or pictures depicting items or weapons. An awkward interface makes matters worse--to move a character, the player has to click "move" on a panel, and then click again on the destination. No keyboard shortcuts are available. On the whole, we think there are far more diverting fantasy games on the market, and find it difficult to recommend this to any but the most dedicated fantasy fans.
