Siege of Avalon

Siege of Avalon

Siege of Avalon is a traditional fantasy RPG with an isometric view. The setting is an imaginary land that has been destroyed by war and it is up to you to defeat the evil warrior Mithras, who seeks to conquer the entire land. Only the fortress of Avalon opposes his evil intentions. The game is mainly action-oriented, there are many NPCs and there are action-based battles. It does not follow a specific RPG rulebook; characters level up when they have gained enough experience by defeating enemies. Class restrictions are rather low, i.e. a fighter can learn spells and master magic etc. This game is described as an "episodic computer game novel". It is divided into six chapters. The first can be downloaded for free, the others must be purchased to complete the story. The second chapter picks up where the first chapter ended, while the third, fourth and fifth chapters are a kind of add-on to the main story. The sixth chapter is dedicated to the final battle against evil.

Story

The game begins with an entry in the hero's diary. The siege has been going on for several years now and his brother Corvus is serving as part of the military in Avalon. When their father dies, the hero feels it is his duty to tell Corvus the sad news, so he becomes part of the crew of a ship that sails from Elythria to Avalon to deliver supplies. The Sha'ahoul sinks all the ships except the one the hero is on, and the ship reaches Avalon without most of its supplies. A return trip to Elythria is not possible, so the hero decides to stay in Avalon and help Avalon in any way he can. The player takes control at this point and begins by speaking to Corvus and informing him of his father's death. The player then helps the people of Avalon with many quests and tasks and eventually becomes a knight, ranger or wizard of legends.
