Game Club Central have posted a review of the Temple of Elemental Evil, rating it 6.0 apparently because of lack of multiplayer, rated 0, since all other components have been rated higher than the outcome score. Here's a snip:

ToEE doesn’t lack on content. The tabletop version of ToEE offered many days of game play and its digital counterpart is no exception. There are a ton of characters and side quests to keep any RPG’er happy, plus the overall story of ToEE to keep the player busy. The game also changes based on what approach the player takes. The player creates or chooses characters to form a 5-person party, based on their ethical alignment toward good or evil.

In game navigation through the world is done via a point and click interface, controlling the whole group or per member. ToEE has a Formation feature allowing the player to group the members in any way they choose. A Log Book feature keeps track of the Party’s quests and other items such as Reputation (which is factored in), Rumors, Keys, Local and World Maps, and even a section call Ego showing which of the party members does the most damage, least damage, dies the most etc. Pop up windows are available keeping track of past dialogue and die rolls
