Reviews for Moontorc (#3280)
1991 Atlantis Software Ltd (UK)
by Graham D. Shaw
I was expecting a lot more from a 91 game.
The graphics are nice but the gameplay is pre-historic.
Our character seems to move in squares and not accuratly either.
I have not played this game enough so maybe I'm missing something that's appealing so many WOS reviewers.
Not a bad game though you never feel totally in control. Sometimes you'll jump and leap across a gap and other times you'll fall into the water below for no real reason that you can see.
I must mention the title music which is a nice rendition of Scarborough Fair.

Pretty , pretty good indeed !
Moontorc is a remarkable game with a wide range of exciting features including spells , different weapons , exotic landscapes , medieval world , etc.
Very mysterious and very deep and complex ... and surprisingly so !!
The mixture of action and strategy is superb !! I love to get lost in this complex adventure !!
I would gladly reward this gem with a 5 but 4ยด5 stars will do the job .

I was very disappointed in this. Given this was made by the same developers of Cavemania which I reviewed earlier I was hoping this would be a lot better, but it isn't. The movement is quite strange and it's too easy to hit the enemies with your body thus costing you health, even with a sword. Again the graphics are very colourful but the gameplay really disappointed me.
