The Temple of Elemental Evil Review at Quandary

Quandary have posted a review of The Temple of Elemental Evil. Here's a tidbit:

If The Temple of Elemental Evil lacks in the story department it sure makes up for it with the wonderful turn based combat. This is where I was in my element because there’s no rush, you can take your time to work out a strategy. Just right click on screen and this opens a radial menu for each character where the combat choices are many. There are various defensive or offensive moves for fighters; triple, double and single attacks, and charge attacks, for instance, not to mention all the spells for your spellcasters, and you can also choose to reposition your characters. For movement during combat a gauge to the left of screen tells you how much time there is but I mainly watched the colour coded cursor. Move it on the screen and if it stays green then your character can take their turn from that point, maybe cast a spell or fire an arrow, if not then their attack is forfeited.
