Did anyone here play this?  For some reason, Hinterland reminded me of this game. 

It's one of the forgotten Diablo clones.  The graphics were great for its time but the gameplay was just average.

I do remember that the combat was more involving than most Diablo clones and required more than clicking on the left button.   Too bad I can't finish it since I lost the CD.

This also came out on the Dreamcast, right? I think I played a demo of it.

I had it for Dreamcast when it was $3.99 at EB.

I remember playing it for a few hours, being bored by its tedious gameplay, and then never touching it again.

I played it (on the PC) and thought it was decent.  I remember enjoying the music and visuals but finding the gameplay pretty average.  I still have the game too...

I played the DC version for about an hour, and I didn't like it.

I had this for the Dreamcast, I think I only played it a couple of times before giving up.  The characters were too damn small, needed a magnifying glass to get through the game.

E.G.G. was superior, that Lotus War game was also a superior Diablo clone.

I still believe there has never been a better loot and levels game on consoles than lodoss war.
