GameOver have posted their review of The Temple of Elemental Evil, giving it a final score of 74%. Here's what they said:

Luckily, the TTOEE engine handles combat well. Battle moves are fun to watch (fighting gelatinous cubes is especially cool), there are a bunch of different types of enemies to kill (including some fairly exotic creatures like lamias and leucrottas), and there are a lot of different combinations of characters you can have in your party, with numerous ways of developing those characters, giving you all sorts of strategic options for how you want to deal with enemies. Do you sneak around and backstab monsters, or splash them with spells, or just wade in with fighters and whack them to death? Plus, because you can have up to eight characters in your party, the battles are much larger than you usually see, and that changes strategy as well because you have to be more careful with how you manage your spells, and how you position your party. In some games you never have to heal during combat, but in TTOEE it’s almost guaranteed.
