At the same time, so much exposition is delivered in-game that the documentation is almost optional.Ģ.
I didn't talk about it much while playing, but the documentation perfectly complements the game setting. In general, Wages of War offers almost everything I'm looking for in this category. Everyone is too-easily manipulated by the demons, whose overall plan really isn't that clever or original. Audiences, whether in movies or games, like to see things that they have not seen before, and Wages of War delivers.īut I also agree with Alex that the story is a bit weaker. It’s an underused milieu, as evidenced by the popularity andĪesthetic impact of Marvel’s recent smash Black Panther movie. Wages of War’sĪfrican-inspired setting was unique at the time, and remains so to thisĭay. Tarna as a city and a land is an absolute joy to behold. For this, I can pretty much just quote Alex's final rating at The Adventure Gamer: I think the lesser RPG elements will be balanced by higher scores in game world and combat. I expect Quest for Glory III to rate about even with II, which was a bit lower than the first one. It would be cool if the number of points earned in each game was translated to a bonus pool of skill points that you could allocate at the beginning of the next game. Giving gifts to Johari, helping Harami, participating in the Sekhmet ritual, playing the mini-games in the Simbani village, and most NPC encounters and dialogue options are reflected only in points. As we saw with my "Bad Chester" experience, many of the actions and moments in Wages of War have no practical value in terms of the direction of the story. On the other hand, points are important because they're the only way to tell that a player has experienced most of the game's content. Since points don't affect the character's skill or power, it's easy to say that it's no big deal if you leave this game having missed 25 or 30 of them. I also don't think my paladin got the points he was supposed to get for defeating the Demon Worm towards the end, nor defeating an ape man for the first time. The walkthroughs I consulted say you get 3 for reading the bulletin board in the tavern, but I just tested it and got none. Finally, I think some of the points are just bugged.
