Top Secret Magazine Hexplore

Hexplore is a RPG/Action game that takes you, the player, into a medieval world of crusades.

You assume the role of a adventurer, and are joined by three other characters. Along the way you will meet over 6000 monsters and cross many lands. From snowy wastes to the heat of the desert. The story is your typical "Find the object" quest and concerns a magical object.

What many people will like about this game is the ease of play. Unlike most RPGs, this one is on the easy side, so first timers will enjoy playing it. Even seasoned adventures will like the easy interface and the varied quests.
Those of you looking for a action filled quest will not be disappointed as the game has lots of battles and action. Frogger

The intros are nice

On the downside the graphics are not quite up to today's standards. They have a old blocky look to them and they are in sad need of some push from a 3D accelerator. But they do not distract much from the game.

Old time gamers will finish the game rather quickly as most of the puzzles are easy and the combat is never too harsh. First timers will like the game because it's never to taxing and quite fun at times.

All in all Hexplore is a nice big quest that has some nice locations and a easy to use interface. Check it out if your looking for some fun.
