Legend of Grimrock - One Room Round Robin 2

From a post on the Almost Human blog page, I found out about this mod. I wanted to stay away from semi-completed or amateur mods, as they could become a time sink with little rewards.

This was anything but amateur. It had unique monsters, brilliant and challenging puzzles, new spells, deep stories, crazy complicated maps, and new items.

I don't want to harp on specific puzzles, or complain about other puzzles, so I'll just say that overall it was a great experience. If I had to play it again, I would try a Toorum run. At least I wouldn't have to panic from almost running out of food so close to the end.

The one thing they did an amazing job of is having an awesomely powerful last boss. LoG didn't really have an amazing last boss in terms of fight mechanic, it had other mechanics.

Check it out!

I also did have to check YouTube a few time to help get some solutions. I tried not to rely on it too heavily, and many times it just confirmed that I was done in a particular puzzle, so I could stop searching.
