From what I heard it's super faithful implementation of DnD, with everything else being not great (aka. Tim Cain is great at systems, but need the other half for story/characters/quest design). Didn't play it myself yet - it's one of my few cRPG blindspots.

Very faithful, yes. And a lot of work has gone into the game over the years with Co8 and Temple+

As far as story goes, it's based on the Gygax module of the same name. I'm biased because I hold that module dear, but for what it's worth, I love a lot of the characters, and I think the story is fairly classic.
