THE wheel of TIME

1999

After its acquisition by GT Interactive, Legend shifted its focus firmly to the world of first-person shooters. Loosely based on the works of Robert Jordan, the adventuring and puzzle aspects that Legend had become famous for are inevitably toned down, as the player searches for a collection of missing seals while battling enemy assassins. Designed by Glen Dahlgren, The Wheel Of Time is based on Epic’s Unreal engine, and is a beautiful game, that required a hefty PC at the time to play. Yet, while it’s undoubtedly fun to play, it lacks the depth of Legend’s adventure games.
