The Bard’s Tale Review

The guys over at Fragland have whipped up a review of The Bard’s Tale, giving the action RPG an overall score of 69%. Their conclusion to follow:

The Bard’s Tale is the funniest game of the year till now, it has really been a very long time since a game made me laugh like this. Too bad the gameplay isn’t as good. We have seen (too) much action rpg’s already with the most of them being richer in options, longer and more challenging than what Inxile Entertainment is offering us here. I am afraid someone forgot that you need more than just a comic relief to create a truly rewarding experience. I still had a lot of fun with it though and judging by the lower-than-average price most shops here are charging for it (€ 40) you can’t say it’s such a rip-off. Go for it if you’re desperate for a good joke and not too demanding about the depth/possibilities of the action and itemhunt part.
