The game has tremendous graphics presented in a 3D isometric view. There are 2 versions, QVGA (320x240) and VGA (640x480). The game graphics feature atmospheric real-time lighting, real-time directional shadows and realistically animated 3D models for all characters and monsters. The game is big. I needed 44M of space on my SD card. Each save game is 680k and saves take a little while."</i><br /><br /> <img src="http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/images/web/2003/westfall-20050802-ancient.jpg" /> <br /><br />Mozongoware has a review up of the new game Ancient Evil by Pocket PC Studios. They give it 4 stars, and the game looks pretty awesome if you want to do some true RPG'ing on your PPC. If you like the game, you can purchase it for $24.95 at the Pocket PC Thoughts Handango Store, <a href="http://www.handango.com/ampp/store/PlatformProductDetail.jsp?siteId=311&jid=C6AA6445134282E43B99X787D3FFBX7C&platformId=2&productType=2&productId=168728&sectionId=0&catalog=30&topSectionId=-1"> The VGA Edition </a> or the <a href="http://www.handango.com/ampp/store/PlatformProductDetail.jsp?siteId=311&jid=C6AA6445134282E43B99X787D3FFBX7C&platformId=2&productType=2&productId=169714&sectionId=0&catalog=30&topSectionId=-1"> The QVGA Edition </a>. I can also safely say that this is the first major temptation since I started my Tech Sabbatical last month. For anyone interested - I saved about $150 last month, but my spreadsheet got toasted in a hasty hard drive re-format. 2 months left... :)
