    GameShark have reviewed the Temple of Elemental Evil, rating it 6.2. Here's a snip:

    They really did a great job bringing the wealth of options available in the pencil-and-paper RPG to the PC game format. Character creation was another amazing aspect, with 11 character classes to choose from, and the ability to fully customize your characters through allocation of skill points and feats. If you have, for instance, a rogue with lots of skill points put towards social abilities such as Diplomacy, Bluff, or Gather Information, he's gonna be the guy you want to use when talking to folks in town. You'll find that the non-player characters in the game react very differently to the different characters in your party, depending on their skills and ability scores. They'll be cowed by the big, burly fighter with a high Intimidate skill, and maybe flirtatious towards the sorcerer with a high Charisma. A character with low Intelligence will have simplistic speech and fewer options during conversation. With all of the options available, no two players' parties will be the same; my two-weapon wielding ranger who specializes in stealth will be very different from another dude's ranger who may focus more on tracking and marksmanship with a longbow.
