Sometimes you just want a simple, comfy game and this delivers in spades. It's incredibly straightforward, the atmosphere is superb, and it makes me nostalgic in a way that almost no other game does. It's like a pure dopamine factory, too -- it's so easy to get lost in this game and let time fly by. Pure '90s gaming perfection.
Also, the Tristram music has to be one of the best themes in all of video games. The lonely melancholy of that song is just out of this world.
(Finally, if you are trying to play this in the 2020s or beyond, please get the DevilutionX mod. It adds a ton of QOL improvements without altering the core gameplay mechanics at all.)
