The Ishar series is undoubtedly Silmarils’ most successful games, and rightly so. Silmarils touted Ishar I when it was released in 1992 as “a new benchmark for RPG”– a bold statement that turns out to be quite accurate: all 3 games boast exceptional 3D graphics for their times, huge gameworld, alternate solutions to puzzles, and– best of all– different personalities and goals of your party members that make gameplay tenfold more colorful and fun. Ishar III is the best of the series, combining the mundane kill-the-bad-guys-in-Ishar plot with time travel elements. Highly recommended.
