| Kimber_333's Full Review: Shadow Gate for Nintendo 64 |
This game is not for lovers of action. This game is for people who love puzzles and logic problems. When I rented this game, I wasn't sure what to expect. But being a person who loves both action and puzzles, I was sure that it would have something I liked and I was right. I enjoyed this game.
The game is based on an old castle with four towers. The castle used to be home to an evil magician who taught his students the dark arts there. But now it is just a home to thieves and gypsies. You get kidnapped in the beginning while you pass in a caravan. You are thrown into a cell and left there. The man in the cell next to you fills you in on info. From there, you have to find a way to escape. It's not too tricky. But the thing I like about this game is it's simplicity. You don't have to fight things off while you wander around. You have to figure out each place and what things you should pick up and leave behind. Now, it's pretty hard to make a mistake. If you try to use an object that's not right, it tells you. You have to keep your eyes peeled for objects. But the story is interesting, the challenges are not too hard, but it was fun. This is not for hard core gamers, they would be bored. But for someone like me, it was good. Not really exciting, but a bit mind boggling.
