This latest review of Pool of Radiance covers the game in good detail. While it's not quite a ringing endorsement, the reviewer does leave us with a few positive comments.

Although this review has tended to focus more on aspects of Pool of Radiance: Ruins of Myth Drannor that I feel could have been better, my overall impression was moderately positive. I found to be worth the approximately 70 hours of playing time I put in; we require completing a game in order to review it, but I probably would have done so anyway were I just playing for myself. From one point of view, it's somewhat disappointing in that it comprises many elements that were not necessarily done badly, but did still leave room for improvement. From another however, if you're the type of gamer who enjoys a straightforward monster bashfest and you don't burden yourself with expectations of epic scope or of anything more than what the game actually offers, you may find returning to the ruins of Myth Drannor to be a worthwhile experience as well.
