I played a game called Talisman a long long time ago, and while I liked it, there where also a lot of things that didn't really work well. Now I've discovered that Prophecy has taken the basic concept of Talisman and improved on pretty much all of the problems of that game - which has led to a very interesting fantasy race game, which has lots of meaningful choices for the players to make. Playing Prophecy feels like an adventure. |
