Background:
The player learns that they are the ward of Gorion, and know nothing about your past. Your peaceful life in Candlekeep, where books are a ticket into the gates, is threatened by some mysterious danger, sending you on a great mission.

Features:

5 CDs filled with prerendered backgrounds, compelling music, and gameplay

Every location is unique since our backgrounds are rendered rather than tiled

Everything displayed in vibrant 16-bit color (65536 different colors)

Isometric, top-down view gives a birds eye view of the action

3D height maps for realistic travel over terrain - actually climb stairs, fall into pits, and traverse rocky areas

Dynamic full color lighting effects

Realistic day to night changes in the lighting of the world

Rain, snow, fog, lightning, all occuring in real-time

Dynamic changes in character appearance - as you change a character's weapons and armor, you see it on that character
