This review is from: Requiem: Avenging Angel--Prima's Official Strategy Guide (Paperback)

I've been playing computer games since the early 1980's. Let me say I haven't always had a good time playing these FPS's. Most of them are knock off's of Doom or some other standard we have come to take for granted. Generally I consider the top FPS's for the past few years to be the Unreal series, the Quake II series, the Half Life series and this game Requiem. Why include this game is such august company ? -- that's easy !!! Just fool around with Malachi for a little while. IF you don't find yourself having one HECK of a good time, just try reading the strategy guide. Malachi is big, bad, bold and outstandingly different and that's just the intro to this wonderful game. With several different difficulty levels to choose from it won't be long before the pages of this guide are dog-eared and worn from having the time of your life playing with this bad boy. This is just a well written and very much needed item for playing this game. For example late in the game (hint: my very own trick for you to play with and use on the bad guys) you finally get a really potent power spell (divine ability, after all you're an angel) called apocalypse, it's kind of like a tactical nuke (like the big bang type) well the game hints along with the guide that you shouldn't use this as you'd toast everyone as well as yourself !!! Here's my trick, I set it off in the train, then ran like blazes the other way and I hid in another car -- what fun all those enemies coming for me -- you got it, toast. So have fun with this game and guide, there is a whale of a game here and you'll need this well-done book chock full of the most amazing stuff. The battles are fierce and very much different within as you fight with the abilities an angel would have with the game cuting away to the battles with the various bosses. One thing though -- I wish Prima had included some of the color artwork (it looks stunning in B/W) so you'll have to actually play the game (the few pic's on the box don't do it justice) to see the marvelous job done on the artwork and characters. Just about everything in this game will indeed blow you away. This Prima guide book is big, a whopping 369 pages and even has a section on shooting tactics including a first rate description of the must-use Circle Strafe. So enjoy, because if you find even some of the enjoyment I did with the aid of this book making this fine game that much better, I'm sure you'll thank yourself for taking the time to read this book. One last thing of interest, this game has kind of a first -- the story combines real elements of RPG's as well as solving puzzles aka Adventure games which the guide explains extremely well. This game actually touches you emotionally -- you care about the mortals you have as allies and when you save them it's truly stunning and to see how you do that from Malachi's standpoint is awesome !!!

This strategy guide was a good one. It helped me a lot. I would hope that you would by this guide if you are stuck in the game.
