Eschalon: Book I

Everything about this game is good: the enemies, varied and fun, some of them quite unusual to the classical RPG genre; the magic system: varied and easy to use; the places: you can see the care for details like the indoor house decorations or the creepy cemeteries; the music: so good and non intrusive; the quest journal: simple and efficient.

The best thing is that there’s a lot of different character builds possible, some being harder than others (Magic users being the easiest to play).

Eschalon Book 1 is a classic fun game with old school graphics, music, and gameplay.

The non playable characters are believable and interesting, and I enjoyed chatting with them.

Also the difficulty and balancing are spot on and I am told by reliable sources that Eschalon only gets better with each chapter.

Torches on the wall can be picked up and added to your inventory, which is a nice touch.
