Summary: Beware of False Advertising!!!
Review: Well, the strategy guide is OK, but it isn't anything like it is supposed to be! In the back of the Baldur's Gate game manual, there is an ad for the guide. The ad says there are monster lists, item lists, etc. NOT THERE!!! This isn't worth $15-20!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: WASTE of TIME and MONEY
Review: Horrible book, it was actually misleading. The book had to have been published before the release becase the crappy maps that it did have were wrong. The information was incorrect, and I found it to be nothing more than very expensive toilet paper. DO NOT BUY THIS BOOK. I recomend you avoid other books by this publisher, they should have never of let this one hit the shelves.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Burning your hard earned cash would be more productive.
Review: This absolutely worthless strategy guide is an embellishment of the manual that comes with the game. Most advice offered falls into the category of common sense and the book is badly organized referring to map locations depicted on a difficult to see map placed 3/4 of the way into the guide. A lousy guide to a fabulous game.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: A Waste of Money.
Review: The only "strategy" in the book are some hints on what points to use to create characters of each class. I was extremely disappointed in the lack of genuine strategy info. It has no monster info, no magic item or weapons info, no detailed map info. It's certainly NOT worth anywhere near the asking price.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: What a piece of junk
Review: Doesn't match the description of the book at all -- no details on NPC's, magic items, maps, etc. Just a pretty lame walkthrough.

One of the least useful purchases I have *ever* made.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: No town maps,monster statistics,NPC locations,or secrets
Review: This "official" guide is basically good for expanding the story line and is good interesting reading. It shows the sequence of general areas/quests to be undertaken, and some NPC info. However, No detailed town maps showing description of buildings and who is in them, no tips/strategy/warnings on how to fight monsters or NPC's, no locations for secret or hidden items such as Ankheg armor, no "difficulty" rating of various areas. I used the internet chat rooms to get real info on this game.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: A very bad guide for a very good game
Review: I'm sorry I bought it. A lot of its content can be found in the user manual. The addition infos contain a walk through and an uncomplete list of sub quests.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Greeeaaaat
Review: Yep

Review: the worst book eve

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Dont waste your money or time
Review: This is far from a hint or tips book. Most info seems to be copied right from the BG manual and the maps are wrong and have wrong names for caption. No useful info in here. I feel ripped off and want my money back.
