About
The Temple of Elemental Evil, first released in 2003, has inspired a passionate community for over two decades. This updated edition is a true labor of love, shaped by years of fan dedication and the incredible efforts of the Circle of Eight and Temple+ modding communities. It brings the classic D&D adventure to life for modern players with over a thousand fixes and improvements - from enhanced stability and AI to smoother performance, refined UI, and countless quality-of-life updates. We’re deeply thankful to everyone who’s helped preserve and evolve this classic.
An evil demoness founded a cult dedicated to exploring evil in its most elemental forms. This cult was based in a temple just outside the village of Hommlet in a vile shire known as Nulb. Soon, this cult ruled the region with tyranny; times of chaos and violence ensued. Hard-fought battles were waged and the war was eventually won by the good armies of nearby lands. The temple was razed, the villains were imprisoned, and order was restored. The temple itself faded into distant memory...until now.
Recently, bandits have begun patrolling the roads outside Hommlet and wicked forces are rumored to be afoot, converging on the ruined temple at Nulb. Their purposes for such meetings are as yet unknown. The identity of these people are equally a mystery. Some claim they are bent on slaying monsters and maintaining order within the region, but no one can be sure.
So begins your adventure within the Realm of Greyhawk. It is an adventure that will lead to the source of a deep and abiding mystery, to the very core of evil itself.

Had a bit of a difficult time in the early game since I tried to play this by relying only on the manual and is my first D&D PC game. I enjoyed it despite a few annoying bugs but I'd prefer deterministic combat over watching all the missed attacks that go on in battles.
old but gold
Good. Fun. Old school.
Le jeu est bien, mais pourquoi avoir "améliorer" le jeu si c'est pas n'avoir que l'anglais alors que la version original avait plus de langue... Cette version est une déception, mais ce jeu est très bon.
Lossless Scaling works well.
sheesh, I tried.
I have waited 20+ yrs to play with this and i feel its fully bugged, unenjoyable. Total disappointment. Also the game system is nowhere to Planescape Torment and Jagged Alliance.
Overall cool old game i like it. Got only one crash
Just as good as before
Bugged mess. Especially infuriating was that the end boss bugged out in an endless surrender dialog loop so it was impossible to finish the game
