Gemstone IV Game Info |
| |
|
Description: |
GemStone IV is the next generation of text-based games. It is a direct expansion of GemStone III, with great new features for current players and new players alike. New technologies developed for GemStone IV will make the game easier to learn and to play.
With GemStone's StormFront Graphical Interface, text becomes interactive and as simple as point and click. No more groping about in the dark for short swords and wondering where that next door is. Simutronics takes the best aspects of today’s technology; such as XML, and combines them with the most powerful form of communication; the written word. We call it “interactive text”, and we think it's going to change the way people perceive text-based games.
GemStone IV is all about roleplaying, with live GameMasters that run role-playing sessions, create spectacular events, and promote an active online community. While “interactive facilitation” is a new idea in the MMORPG business, Simutronics has mastered it for over a decade. Add to that a robust and ever-expanding combat system, over 25,000 rich and complex locations to explore, and an extensive and thorough world history to rival that of some of the property-licensed titles, and you’ve got the makings of something great.
The bottomline: If you're not just looking for a good role-playing game, but a great role-playing experience, then GemStone IV has something for you. |
