*Sigh*... just another game that I don't have time to play right now. 
Party-based (6), isometric world exploration RPG, with visible combats and many quests and puzzles. Dedicated mini-games for thievery/lockpicking. Turn-based combat with monsters appearing "face-on" in separate combat screen, reminiscent of older RPGs. Graphics and map are pleasant and colourful, without being cartoony. Feels like Baldur's Gate and Might&Magic had a baby.
More like disciples (1&2)
Quests are rather simple but written well enough. Some puzzles too.
Game mechanics are mostly all about combat and some resource management.
Party creation is simple enough but with a lot of options.
Good summary, but I would leave Baldur's Gate out here.
LoX imho is a great game, but it has very little in common with BG.
I think the combat is more like Might and Magic - not hero of might and magic. I find it so far a very good game; I need to restart. The only two things that bugged me about the game is they more or less force you to take a certain path that has a bit of back and forth (the 'force' aspect is via difficulty not invisible barrier) and the food mechanics can be a bit harsh on certain terrain if you don't plan for it way in advance.

Old school Wizardry-like game with modern graphics and systems, and lot's of content. If you like this style of game then you will love LoX. Numantian Games did a great job!

Very much a Might and Magic 3-5 feel to the game, though combat plays out like Phantasie or perhaps an early Wizardy game. Your party and the enemy line up in rows two deep on the battlefield and then take turns whacking at each other based on initiative. Quests and story are very simple, but make sense within the context of the story. Basically, you had a good king who worshipped all the gods equally. When he dies his wicked sons worship the god of all bad things and you have to kick butt

Hmm, it does not sound like a game for me. I didn't even play MMX yet (and I probably will not). I don't like when I cannot move individual party members during combat and when movement is not a tactic (I enjoy putting my rogue behind enemies in IWDEE to get a backstab).
