Menzoberranzan is based on R.A.Salvatore's best-selling "Forgotten Realms" novel The Legacy, which explores the mysterious culture of the Drow. Based on the improved version of engine used in Ravenloft, it is clear that DreamForge took all the criticisms to heart. The result is a beautiful and more stable game, with a variety of challenging levels. There are even a few characters to meet along the way, and some nasty surprises. However, the game suffers from endless fights and few puzzles until the players the very last 20% of the game.
