    Does anyone want another IWD: Heart of Winter review? Great, because I've got two more for you!

    New Zealand Infotech gives HoW a good review, obviously impressed with the expansion.

    The review at BubbleDream scores it only a 6/10, and breaks the game down to its pros and cons:

    Pros:
    (1) All the interface and gameplay improvements from Baldur's Gate II are here
    (2) More spells and weapons and a higher experience cap
    (3) Excellent music and voice acting
    (4) Heart of Fury mode gives a real challenge for the high-levelled party

    Cons:
    (1) Doesn't add much gaming hours to the original Icewind Dale
    (2) Dreary and uninteresting in-game locales
    (3) Forgettable and boring monsters
