 pretty good, with a great on line World of Qin you can play on November 19, 2007
Seems this one is getting mixed reviews. Well it is in fact one of my favorites. Long too. There are some really good walkthroughs on the net, in case you should get stuck. I liked the atmoshpere of the game, the music was nice enough that I actually created my own CD for rides to work. All in all an excellent buy at the moment. If you are looking for a game to spend some time on while waiting for the next thing, then try this one.

I was really surprised to find that lots people don't enjoy this game very much. I think that is because they're Americans, who don't understand well about Orient. If they do, then they'll have a better opinion about this game. The only weak point of this game is it's graphic and the story seemed to end rather quickly. I always wish it was a much longer one. Anyway, in general it's complete fun and interesting !!!!! I love it !!!!!
Very Slow, but can be fun January 28, 2004

I have to agree with most of the reviewers on Amazon.
But keep it in perspective.
I too got the game for free, because my brother didn't want it.
So being bored one day I installed it and began playing with it. The first opening scenes were a bit dated, and I can see how some would say the game/story is cheesy. I also find myself unsure of what to do often, and if you take the wrong road or go to the wrong place, your stuck never to complete the game due to various reasons.The game can be extremely slow, and if you have a wife (like me) she'll get frustrated at the time you'll spent on this game. With all this said, the game is fun. Maybe because I like slower games (and some of the older software I still have), but it can be just plain fun. I love being able to develop a team (5 characters) and making weapons, finding gold, plundering houses and taking weapons from dead bandits (selling goods).
Now all of this may be "old-hat" to some other games, but with the theme and stylistic Chinese atmosphere, it makes it unique and alot of fun. Be sure to download and/or copy the unofficial stategy guide from the internet. Without it, "you'll wonder the eastern world like a blindman". After I printed out that information, I restarted the game and sped through the game, enjoying the game even more. Sure this game isn't the groundbreaking software that some newer games are, but for the current price it can be a fun little game (but bring your patience and download or purchase the unofficial strategy guide).
 Boring, in a nutshell November 24, 2003

It is rare that I get a computer game, and don't bother to complete it, even if I do it just to say I did.Prince of Qin is one I gave up on. The game lacks direction at times. I got to a certain point, and I had zero idea where to go, even with reloading an older saved game and trying again, to make sure I didn't miss some key dialogue. Given that I felt the game would tell you to "accomplish A, obtain B," but never tell you where B might be found, or even an inkling as to where A could be begun at, I quit. This game was too much money to be this disappointing.
How is it Like.... hmmm October 1, 2003

Well the best way I can describe it It similair to Arcanuim.. it seems to have it's Dynamic Points here and there just a at best Several... there are the usual linear scopes and the missions that you can get which are more locally., It's really not my cup of tea I inda prefer turn based Games Like M.A.X. (a Classic for 95/98) and the Heroes of Might and Magic Series (not the RPG)...
