• Scythe on 30.11.2007:
  I love this game very much, and I go back to it every few months, only to find the same problem: It crashes on me... I can play for about half an hour (sometimes less) and then I get an error message and the game crashes. *sigh* Why couldn't this have happened to some no good sucky game instead...
  
  P.S. It's one of those "unexpected something something" errors. I report it and there's apparently no solution on file.

  Got an email from the developer yesterday, and we now have permission from him to host the game. He also gave us a good pad on the back for our work here. Nice guy!
  
  I hope to see him in here, and he did say he would drop in.

  I couldn't have said it better .
  
  I love this game as well and it's probably one of the best we discussed on this site so far...
  
  It's a great mix between action, sidescroller and role playing game. You can choose from various characters in the beginning of the game (gets more important during later levels) and have the opportunity to upgrade these characters by buying new amor, weapons and amulets.
  You can also learn a great variety of spells which you can use during fights. Sometimes it's really hard to find the right spell combination to win a hard fight and you will die several times before you succeed. But you don't have to worry; there are several savepoints and you don't have to start from the beginning after dying.
  
  Graphics are fine (even if you can not play in fullscreen mode) and the music and sounds are atmospheric and won't get on your nerves after a while (I would be glad if I could say this from every freeware game). The story is interesting enough to keep you playing for several hours. (copy from my vote in the game hunters forum)
  
  I nearly completed world three by now (had to spend most of my freetime last week on that) and it's really hard by now). I tried several times to kill the last opponent but fail every time. So I think I have to change my strategy...
  
  
  So please hear what your admin said and start playing this game! You won't regret it.

  Ok I am now trying it out, and I must say that this game is a reak true GEM! I love it. I have been playing it for God knows how many hours now, and I am only in world 2 (finishing up though).
  
  I am playing with three different chars, and about now I start regretting that I didn't go with two priests and no mage. Simply loving it, and just now stumbled into the first challenge that seems a bit too hard. Some have said that the game is too easy, but I wouldn't go there. I think it demands the right amount of strategy from you, so that you don't die all the time, and you still have to keep on your toes.
  
  I just ran into a demon spitting suicide explosive imps at me, while the mad young preacher is holding the village magician captured. I am having somewhat of a hard time getting that completed...
  
  Love this game. If you haven't tried it yet, then go do so immediately! Now that is a direct order from your admin!

  Site description by developer:
  The Spirit Engine is a 2D, sidescrolling adventure/RPG game with a simple story and a straightforward, innovative real-time combat system. Written as an experimental reaction to old 16bit console RPGs, it took a little under two years to complete and was released in November 2003 as freeware under Natomic.
  
  Although TSE-1 suffers from amateurish scripting and graphics, poor coding, a cumbersome menu system and a slow and unrefined combat engine, I am still proud of what the game achieved. Most importantly I enjoyed playing it and, although it split opinions, I am happy to say that many others did too.
  
  License: Freeware but we need permission to host.
  
  Interesting fact: The spirit engine II is in the making
