| Arx Fatalis | JoWood Productions (Arkane Studios) | 2002 | Cast away from the surface of the Earth by the disappearance of the sun, Mankind lived hidden underground in the Fortress of Arx. Humans only have magic left to survive against Ratmen, Dragons and starvation... But a much greater danger is hovering above the world of Arx Fatalis. Lurking in the eternal darkness of the mines, it feeds off the innocent souls of the city. It is not a monster. It is not human. It is pure evil. The adventure has just started, and soon, the fate of Arx, will be in your hands. Arx Fatalis is a medieval heroic fantasy first person role playing game which places the accent on immersion, storyline and innovative magic system. Arx Fatalis is intended for RPG and adventure players. Dive into the universe of Arx Arx Fatalis is an RPG that thrusts the player into an extremely complex fantastic world. Arx Fatalis combines a rich storyline with impressive medieval settings. The easy to use interface results in maximum interaction. The player is in an intense immersion state where he can feel how each one of his actions affects the surrounding world. The goal of the game is to reduce to nothing the cult of Akbaa, God of destruction and Chaos, and thus, prevent him from returning to the physical world. If the player fails, the demon will crush Arx under its rule of blood and terror. The player, assuming the role of potential hero, fights in a large underground fortress, with wood clubs, swords, lances. and many magic artifacts, against the threat of multiple underground creatures (Goblins, Trolls, Ratmen and other vicious creatures.) But rough power is not always the best road to victory. The hero may also use the new "screen magic" to advance. By using the mouse, magic runes have to be drawn and combined on screen in order to create powerful spells that will protect the player or give him the strength to defeat his enemies and to complete his quest. In addition to the fight against demons and monsters, there is also a practically infinite number of interactions with the creatures and objects in the fortress, which enable the player to regain his memory, solve enigmas, and fulfill quests. By accumulating experience points, the player is able to lead his hero and train him any way he wants. Dare to enter the world of Arx Fatalis. Explore the underground cities, secret temples, ancient mine tunnels, discover forgotten civilizations and dominate the magic of Arx Fatalis...***The game may suffer from severe [i]flickering[/i] and depth buffer issues under some circumstances. The actual cause is unknown as it fixed itself and I failed to reproduce it. Bumb mapping used by the game is one of the earliest methods and causes some graphical glitching on at least NV's GPUs (buttons and doorways otherwise revealed by sufficiently high intuition are colored almost pitch black). Therefore it is recommended you disable it. Forcing anti-aliasing causes some text to disappear, the game itself has no anti-aliasing options so this is only reminder not to do it in externally.***[b]Minimum:[/b] * Windows 98, ME, 2000 or XP * 500 MHz Pentium II CPU * 64 MB RAM * 16 MB VRAM * 750 MB HD space * 4X CD-ROM drive [b]Recommended:[/b] * 900 MHz Pentium III CPU * 256 MB RAM * 32 MB VRAM***Latest version: 1.21 (2011-01-14) Version history: * 1.18 (2007-10?) | labelimagesubject |
| Legend of Grimrock | Almost Human Games | 2012 | Simplemente la mejor conversión al videojuego del misterio, emoción y claustrofobia mental que transmite un juego de rol de exploración de mazmorras. Además de destaca por su único sistema de juego, que mezcla un manejo casi de aventura gráfica con un combate a semitiempo real y una creación de personajes muy RPG y variada. Y especialmente notable por su efecto "sólo una escalera/puerta más", haciendo volar el tiempo con facilidad. Eso sí, lo del modo Old School ya es para nostálgicos masocas XD 9 de 10.***What is Legend of Grimrock? * Old-school dungeon crawling game inspired by Dungeon Master, Eye of the Beholder and Ultima Underworld. * Explore a vast dungeon riddled with hidden switches, pressure plates, sliding walls, trapdoors and more. * Discover secrets, cast spells with runes and craft potions with herbs. * Fight murderous monsters and seek lost artifacts in ancient tombs. * Create a party of four characters and customize them with different races, classes, skills and traits. Legend of Grimrock is a dungeon crawling role playing game with an oldschool heart but a modern execution. A group of prisoners are sentenced to certain death by exiling them to the secluded Mount Grimrock for vile crimes they may or may not have committed. Unbeknownst to their captivators, the mountain is riddled with ancient tunnels, dungeons and tombs built by crumbled civilizations long perished now. If they ever wish to see daylight again and reclaim their freedom the ragtag group of prisoners must form a team and descend through the mountain, level by level. The game brings back the oldschool challenge with highly tactical real-time combat and grid-based movement, devious hidden switches and secrets as well as deadly traps and horrible monsters. Legend of Grimrock puts an emphasis on puzzles and exploration and the wits and perception of the player are more important tools than even the sharpest of swords could be. And if you are a hardened dungeon crawling veteran and you crave an extra challenge, you can arm yourself with a stack of grid paper and turn on the Oldschool Mode which disables the luxury of the automap! Are you ready to venture forth and unravel the mysteries of Mount Grimrock? | labelimagesubject |
