Official description

Sharpen your sword... and your wits

Discover swashbuckling adventure like never before. You are Cyrus, a Redguard mercenary who has returned to his homeland to find it in peril. The quest leads from the Iron Governor, to a restless band of pirates, and even into another dimension. You'll solve their puzzles, with both your wits and your sword, and live an epic story. Action, adventure and storytelling are all combined in the genre breaking game that is Redguard.

* Travel the wish landscapes of REDGUARD. Beaches, rivers, hills, and mountains will test your stamina.
* Return to Tamriel, land of the Elder Scrolls.
* Make your way into the palace and seek an audience with the governor.
* Real time 3D cinematics highlight the story that evolve at the pace of your play.
* Sword fight, jump across dizzying chasms, and swing across ropes!
* Delve into deep caverns, dwarven ruins, mysterious catacombs, and even into another dimension. The entire world is open for you to explore. If you get stuck in one area, you can leave and tackle another.
* Interact with dozens of characters and hear every line of dialogue.
* Involved puzzles, with multiple objects and deep combinations will test your wits.
* The heart of your search is Stros M'Kai, an island of unparalled scope and detail. Explore the harbour town and unlock the secrets of its landscape.

Comment

If there ever was a ridiculous game, then this is it, a DOS game that requires Windows OS to install but DOS to play. Even X-COM Apoc comes with DOS installer (despite being advertized as Win95 game).

Players should see the UESP link for installation and other instructions.
