Arx Fatalis is an RPG developed by Arkane Studios. It offers a number of interactions with objects and NPCs, realistic action fights, a unique real time spell casting system, character creation, dialogues, puzzles, exploration in an underground atmospheric world with various Cities inhabited by several races, galleries, dungeons and mines all intertwined by an unexpected epic plot.

We will bring you this Arx Fatalis Element of the week in collaboration with publisher Fishtank. This time we feature the Magic Missile Spell.

The Magic Missile Spell
If you are not well trained in fighting, this spell can save your life. Magic missile can be best described as an offensive spell, which you can cast to get rid off your enemies or to destroy breakable objects. To eliminate potential threats with this spell over a distance is a much more safer way than facing an enemy in close combat. When cast, projectiles consisting of magical energy will hit the target, causing damage or even death. These magic projectiles will explode on impact. Although pretty useful in combat situations, you don't need much mana to cast this spell which makes this one even more valuable. Knowing this spell makes surviving in the sometimes very dangerous world of Arx much easier. 

Today's Screenshots feature the spell as it takes out one goblin; you might want to download the screens and watch them quickly in a row to get a more movielike experience:
