Build on the terror and adventure of Diablo with this expansion set. The software adds 12 new weapons, five new spells, 29 new foes, and the Monk, a new and powerful ally. There is also a whole new story to unravel and new demons to destroy.

   Summary: Lousy add-on to a great game.
I really expected something special when I bought this and I was disappointed. It takes up more space on the hard drive than the original game, but adds little. Pluses: the ability to run in town saves time; search spell is useful; a few new weapons and spells.

Minuses: The first 4-level expansion dungeon, the Hive was really boring and incredibly annoying visually. Picture gold colored brains and that is what you get - piles of gold pieces blended in too closely with the background. Monsters in this level were boring and easy to kill, even the big boss at the end. The Crypt level was better but still lacking in excitement.

The monk character was uninteresting and unfortunately the other two characters are hidden and must be activated by codes. I do not feel comfortable with typing any key words into my computer's operating system or software and therefore did not access these extra character types.

When I upgraded my computer and needed to re-install Diablo on a newly formatted hard drive last summer, I did not bother installing Hellfire.

   Summary: Good and Bad at once
How do I start? The monk is a nice addition but the fact that the 2 better characters are hidden in the game WITHOUT 'skins' to make them visually appealing was a drag. Network play is also available via using a text file with specific wording. The Barbarian was probably the most useful out of all 3 of the characters available in this expansion pack. I was very diappointed by the terrible levels added on to this. They did not fit in with Diablo at all. The new weapons and spells however ROCKED. ANd well.....Running in town ...that was worth the 20 bucks alone!

   Summary: Exciting New Challenges!
I really enjoyed this expansion. The new "ring" spells were great. Just sit in the middle and shoot arrows at your opponents. The Monk character was also a great addition. He's a little wimpy at first, but can do some serious damage as he goes up levels.

Some of the new monsters are quite challenging. There's a new "dungeon" that pops up in the field outside of town filled with some seriously nasty bugs. I did a lot of saving and reloading.

If you're a big fan of the game, I think this addition is worth every penny.

   Summary: If Diablo then Hellfire!
If you love Diablo then why not add to it! There are two dungeons with an extra four levels. This gives you the ability to gain power and weapons before you get to the big guy! The Monk character is weak but interesting if you can make it work. If you know some of the codes for the command file you can get the rogue character to wield two weapons and watch the double damage fly! There are tons of new weapons and armor as well. This is worthy of your hard earned cash, especially at the current price!

   Summary: Don't bother
If you loved Diablo like I did then you will probably be disappointed at the lack of invention that typifies this add-on. The "new" levels are quite unimpressive and the "new" spells don't do much for me (with the single exception of the search spell). The new character (the Monk) is nothing more than a composite of the three previous character types. Don't waste your money - save up for Diablo 2.
