Nostalrul is a must-play quest that is also very fun and solid though it does suffer a bit from difficulty balancing issues and easily found secrets that would otherwise make this an almost perfect quest.

I'm gonna give this one a middle three. Decent quest, especially for a two-week time constraint, and you did fairly well in managing overworld progression. It was also pretty humorous as well, but secrets were pretty easy to find. Dungeons seemed to be fairly well-designed, though some enemy placement was a bit brutal, and level three in particular had a long way to go if you died late in the level, before you can access the boss room. Level four was also quite underwhelming. But, all things considered, not really a bad quest at all.

Based on my LIVE Stream on 7/29/13:
Pros:
+ Impressive Overworld Layout and Design
+ Solid Gameplay
Cons:
- Lack of Depth in some areas.
- Unbalanced difficulty (Especially on Level 3)
- Lack of placement flags for enemies which means that they appear in awkward locations
- Minor, annoying Bugs
VERDICT: As a whole, Nostalrul is a solid first quest from Goriya with its impressive looking overworld and fun gameplay. But the unbalanced difficulty and occasional minor bugs may disrupt your experience.
