    iHigh.com gives Pool of Radiance: Ruins of Myth Drannor one of the highest scores the game has got so far: 9 out of 10. Their views on for example the implementation of the 3rd edition D&D rules are very different from what we have seen in other reviews.

    The implementation of the 3rd edition rules is quite successful. As in any conversion, some modifications have to be made to make rules usable on a PC. Certain spells have to be cut out, such as wish, and the spell system has had the wizards removed from it and is based exclusively on sorcerers. This is primarily because wizards, while they have much more versatility, have to re-memorize their spells after they are cast and have to spend experience to cast them. Sorcerers don't have these limitations but once they have a spell they have it forever. Feat and skill changes are set in stone for the different classes, although you are allowed multiple classes if you want to spend the experience.
