| Introducing another new game: Inquisitor |
|
Our reader Ben brought our attention to a new game called Inquisitor. It is being developed by Wooden Dragon. First screens can be watched on the <a href="http://www.wooden-dragon.com/cz/galerie.htm" target="_blank">official site</a>, which holds info in czech only, which Ben also translated for us - thanks!<ul><i>In present the Wooden Dragon team is finishing the development of their first title, the 3D isometric action RPG Inquisitor. As its name implies, the story of the game is set into a fictional dark medieval kingdom, which stands on the edge of collapse with terrible fights between heretical sects, the church, the aristocracy and the knight orders. To terminate the conflict and protect the religion against heresy, the inquisition was called upon, fact-finding and judical mechanism of the church, which has huge competence. Over the whole land there were execution fires and from torture chambers waft screaming of questioned persons, suspected for heresy. But as it usually happens, where is power, there is corruption too and dark infernal forces don't
wanna retreat from places, where they sowed the seed of feud. So begins the
story, which will retract the player deep into heretical conspiracy, which may
wanna much more then just conquer the kingdom.
<br>
<br>Even though the official characteristic of the game is "action RPG", it
doesn't mean, that the only emphasis will be on action and story gradient.
Because the game is, with its character, script and gamedesign, similar to
many other genres, like "classic RPG" or "adventure with strong detective
elements." What to imagine under this? In the first place, players will (in
main story line) have to find, who is the person behind the conspiracy
which endangers the kingdom. So they have to carry out the quest, which will
depend not only on might and power, but in the first place on wits and logical thinking, which is needed to investigate the crimes. The authors don't mask, that their pattern in this was classical mediaval fantasy The Name of the Rose, written by Umberto Eco. Not, of course, in story, but in spirit and way of investigation.
<br>
<br>Basic advantage of the game will be its story, which will be different for
all three main characters, which can player choose in the begining. These
characters are a priest, a paladin and a thief, and each character will have
many unique skills, which will make him completely different and will
permit the player to try three completely different strategies of gameplay.
Besides, each character will be taken through a different story, which
will differ especially in the player's enemies, opponents and allies. In this
way the player can experience three different adventures and will solve
three different cases, in which old friends can be the most obstinate enemy
and nasty heretic.</i></ul> |
