Lands of Lore (1993) - Better than Eye of the Beholder? - Review [EN] by Kordanor

Eye of the Beholder 2 was Westwood's last production under SSI before they went on to release Lands of Lore in 1993, a Dungeoncrawler RPG, which puts even more emphasis on presentation and ease of entry, while leaving the D&D license behind. Can "LANDS" convince even today with it's graphics and gameplay? That's what we will be looking at in this Review.
