Description

Realms of Arkania is a series of classic role-playing video games first released in the early 1990s. It is set in the popular fantasy world of Aventuria, based on the German pen-and-paper role-playing game The Dark Eye. The series consists of three main games and several spin-offs, starting with Realms of Arkania: Blade of Destiny in 1992. The games are set in a traditional fantasy world with a mix of European medieval and Norse influences. Players create and control a party of adventurers as they explore the world, complete quests, and battle monsters. Combat is turn-based and tactical, and the games feature a complex and detailed character system. The trilogy follows the adventures of a group of adventurers from the city of Thorwal as they search for a legendary artifact known as the Blade of Destiny. Along the way, they must face powerful foes and uncover ancient secrets. The first two games in the trilogy, Blade of Destiny and Star Trail, were critically acclaimed for their deep and detailed role-playing systems, and the third game, Shadows Over Riva, was praised for its improved graphics and improved combat system. The games have been released on a variety of platforms, including PC and mobile, and they remain popular with fans of classic role-playing games.
