Public Opinion Overall Rating: 8.0 8I've never played the original, but this was very fun. I think it'd be interesting to try to update the graphics more, though. 10This is a remake of Fargoal. Fargoal is a Rogue like game, so expect rogue like gameplay - the dungeons are tough, get tougher and if you ever beat the dungeon you're one of a chosen few.
Games like these are what evolved into modern RPGs. And if you play it, you can learn a lot on game design. The game is complex, yet simple.
The update in graphics reanimated one of the all time classics - fargoal never looked so good, and it plays fantastic.
Download it, play it and try your best to beat it <b>...</b> 6Very good principe but takes a long time
and makes you very angry if you die after 5 hours playing...
The sounds are not really great but
fit to the other things.
The graphics are as they are in an
arcade game.
At all it`s good in fun
and bad in ressource.
