Quest For Glory I: So You Want To Be A Hero

Review by masamune 2525

"A classic and a great game!"

This is one of the first rpg's I ever played and it was one of the best it is also one of the oldest games I've ever played well that's enough ramblings for now let's get to the review.

Gameplay-10/10

The gameplay was very good You can do almost anything from lockpicking to climbing to picking pockets and casting spells you can run or walk around Spielburg you can pretty much do anything the battles are ok they are fairly easy to avoid and run away from you have the in battle options of running attacking casting spells if you know any and using a shield and the controls are very easy to use with a bit of practice.

Graphics 6/10

This game is kind of old and it doesn't have the great graphics we have today but it has ok graphics besides you don't play rpg's for graphics you play them for the great stories if you are strongly influenced by graphics this game isn't for you but if you don't mind graphics then feel free to buy this game it's very good.

Story 10/10

This game has a great story defeating a witch,saving the princess,defending Spielburg from the brigands,saving the prince,and stopping a curse on the royal family the story is slightly affected by which player you choose a thief, fighter, or wizard but not by much the story is one of the best I've ever played but it's not too deep this isn't a very long game but the sidequests and secrets keep it from being too short.

Music/Sound 7/10

It has ok music not great the music is the only real bad part of the game there is barely any music and it isn't that great when there is music but some of the music is ok besides I never really pay much attention to music in a game.

Replay value 10/10

With three different classes wizard, fighter, and thief you have many different stories and you'll want to play them all the story only slightly differs with each character but there are a lot of sidequests and items and magic you can only get by playing through as a certain character.

Overall 10/10

This game is one of my first rpg's and it was great it is kind of old so you might have to search for it but if you see it you should definitely try it out you won't be disappointed trust me unless your one of those people who are obsessed with graphics you'll probably like it.
