Forgotten Realms: Demon Stone Reviews

The PS2 version of Atari and Stormfront’s Forgotten Realms: Demon Stone is the subject of two more reviews on the web. The first is over at SciFi.com with an overall score of “B”:

But the story, written by R.A. Salvatore, is one of the main draws of Demon Stone. With this in mind, I recommend watching the unlockable journal entries and other scenes after each completed level it helps fill in the blanks. Although the game makers took the cheap route, using Ken-Burns-style pan-and-scan for these unlockables, the plot itself is interesting, and these little nuggets add to your understanding of each character’s motivation.

And the second is at FutureGamez with an overall score of 78%:

I’d say that Forgotten Realms Demon Stone is one of those games where you don’t need to be die-hard fans of those fantasy magic games like Dungeons and Dragons, but if you are, it would help. Fortunately the game is as equally enjoyable without being a fan of it, I mean, I have no clue and yet I still had an absolute ball slaying everything I could find. With a solid story to back the action, and overly challenging and enjoyable hack n’ slash game, it’s easy to see why this game is selling at a quite decent rate at the moment. It’s well worth a look.
