Game Revolution has posted a review of Shadows of Undrentide, the first Neverwinter Nights expansion, rating it as a B on its report card. Here is a snippet:

The campaign starts you off in the small town of Hilltop, where you and some other students are apprenticed to the dwarf Master Drogan. Suddenly, the house is attacked by kobolds. They backstab Drogan with a special poisoned knife and steal four mysterious artifacts, which are more important than you could have imagined. So off you go to recover the artifacts and explore the world.

You can take one of your fellow students with you as a "henchman," just as in the first game but with a couple differences. First, each henchman has two customizable career paths. You can instruct Xanos, for example, to gain levels of either the sorcerer or barbarian class in any combination you please. You can also control your henchman's inventory and equipment, which you could not do before.
