King of Dragon Pass Review

RPG Codex has whipped up a retrospective review of A-Sharp's highly overlooked RPG from 1999, King of Dragon Pass.
All in all, I'd name it a classic and have no trouble recommending it. The artstyle and graphics are wonderful, everything is made up of static paintings which manage to carry over the setting's atmosphere perfectly. I found the music to be fitting. It seemed to have such a fuzzy 'žold game( atmosphere, similar to old DOS classics. The unique gameplay makes up for its flaws, and the high difficulty only adds to the challenge. It's also very much possible to play the game sandbox-style, creating new clans and just trying to reach a self-set goal, without ever starting the main quest of forming a kingdom. It's unique, it's interesting, and it's a fun game that you should definitely try out, if only to see that a game can transcend genre boundaries and become something special.

How about adding your own thoughts, Fable? :)
