Customer Reviews

I'm not sure why everyone seems so down on it...

I found it rather useful. Mostly I referred to the maps, and in several cases, was able to locate a section of dungeon I'd missed behind secret doors or stuff like that... The minor quest section could've stood a little more detail, and as mentioned the item and NPC sections were totally inane, but other than that I had little to complain about. As for plot spoilers -- if you don't resort to the book until you're truly stumped, you shouldn't be getting plot spoilers, because it's a pretty linear game, so a clue for a section of the game you're in doesn't mention stuff from somewhere in the future. At least that was my experience, FWIW, YMMV.

Very descriptive quest walkthrus and detailed tables.

Great book. It lacks maps of individual towns though

Outstanding Strategy Guide - incredible depth of material

Based on the sheer volume of information in the book, this Strategy Guide deserves five stars. Ted Chapman did an excellent job of covering every major aspect of the game. In addition, the material is laid out in an extremely logical and comprehensive fashion. The extensive table of contents and the detailed dungeon maps at the end allow you to find everything you need to know in order to dominate the forces of evil in MM6.The only shortcoming of the book is that it doesn't disclose the whereabouts of certain "easter eggs" and few other hidden locations. But this is not really a shortcoming, since this gives the real MM6 addict something to work at in the wee hours of the morning.

You can't play without it

DO NOT, I repeat, DO NOT TRY TO PLAY THE GAME WITHOUT THIS BOOK! I saves lots of time, and energy. It would be nice though to have a section on where things are at in specific villages and towns, EX.training centers, armor shops. Where the building is specifically>

You need help ? Here is help !

What do I look for in a strategy guide ? I want to get advise but not a complete solution. So if you are looking for the same, Prima's Strategy Guide to The Mandate of Heaven is just the thing. Very detailed description of monsters, weapons, locations etc. but you have to find your way through the puzzles yourself and hopefully beat all the monsters you meet. And this is a task in itself.Have fun.
