One of the best-loved role-playing games is back in action with Baldur’s Gate Enhanced Edition. And puts a fresh coat of paint on Biore’s original 1998 release in the Dungeons & Dragons Forgotten Realms universe. This is a rich, complex isometric rendition, with loads of dialogue, combat, and customization available across the 60+ hour fantasy campaign.
Cramming a game of this scope onto a small touch screen can be a little awkward, particularly with the tiny text (it’s a better fit for tablets), but there’s so much to enjoy here. Beyond the core game, the $10 package includes expansion content online multiplayer for iPad and Mac players, plus additional content to purchase. And 2000’s Baldur’s Gate II is also on Android.
