This acclaimed first-person RPG transports players to the enchanting fantasy world of Arx. Arx Fatalis combines a cleverly crafted narrative with a setting that evokes the genuine feel of a medieval environment. The game excels in making players acutely aware that their actions significantly impact the world and its inhabitants.
The central quest of Arx Fatalis is to dismantle the sinister cult of Akbaa, the god of destruction. Players must thwart the resurgence of this malevolent deity into the physical realm. Failure to do so will unleash Akbaa's reign of terror across Arx.
Players find themselves as the protagonist in a subterranean realm, armed with an array of weapons, spells, and magical items to combat foes like goblins, trolls, and rat-men.
Combat in Arx Fatalis isn’t just about brute strength; stealth tactics and a unique onscreen gesture-based magic system also play crucial roles. Players can cast spells by drawing flaming runes in the air with the mouse, combining different gestures to unleash powerful magical effects essential for protection and combat as they progress through their quest.
Key Features:
• Engage in an innovative gesture-based spellcasting system that adds depth to gameplay.
• Explore a vast underground world filled with mysteries and dangers.
• Experience a dynamic story where your choices dictate the narrative, leading to one of four distinct endings.
