Gameplay

Legends of the Lost Realm is a game in which an ancient castle has recently been reclaimed by supporters of the High Kings.[1] The game is a turn-based first-person role-playing game with a party of up to six characters. The four base character classes can be upgraded to nine specialty classes once a player character reaches a certain level.[2]

Reception

Dennis Owens reviewed the game for Computer Gaming World, and stated that "despite its problems, Legends of the Lost Realm is a fascinating, complex, and rewarding gaming experience. It is a must buy for all Mac users who are desperately wailing for role-playing games and intricate adventures."[1]

Macworld inducted Legends of the Lost Realm into its 1990 Game Hall of Fame in the Best Role-Playing Game category, calling the game a "role-playing epic that tops Wizardry."[3]
