Eschalon: Book I
Reveal your identity and realize your destiny! Eschalon: Book I is a classic role-playing game experience that will take you across massive outdoor environments and deep into sprawling dungeons as you seek to uncover the mystery of who you are. It’s an unapologetic throwback to the age when games were more calculation than cutscene and more gameplay than graphics, featuring a tile-built, turn-based game world where your choices and roll of the dice determine every action.
• An epic adventure that you must face alone...a single-player RPG carefully designed to feel like the great old-school RPGs of the past such as Ultima™, Might & Magic®, and Wizardry®.
• Combat plays out at your pace. Eschalon: Book I features a flexible turn-based system to match your playing style ...make it fast and furious, or analyze every option for maximum advantage.
• Free yourself of character class stereotypes! Ample development options let you choose from 24 unique skills and 8 base attributes to make the character you want to play.
• Choose your path through the world of Eschalon. Need to get into that crypt but the door is locked? Pick the lock, bash it, steal the key, or find the owner and persuade him to let you in!
• Follow the storyline … or don't. A non-linear storyline means that the game world is open to explore as you desire. Just be careful where you go and who you trust – the world of Eschalon can be a deadly place for an inexperienced adventurer.
• Hundreds of items and dozens of creatures await your discovery. A combination of randomly generated treasure and hidden goodies means that no two games play the same.
Enter Eschalon and relive the golden age of RPGs.
