Description
The world of Tempest is in need of a champion! You have been summoned to embark on a noble journey to save all of humanity from an evil fate. You must keep your wits about you, your sword must stay sharp and ready, and your spells charged as you forge through Tempest's massive landscape. Descend into the maws of many a dark and dangerous dungeon in search of your quest's end.

You'll have at your disposal more than 25 spells and items of great power, each drawing upon one of the elemental forces such as earth, wind, fire, and lightning. Whether you prefer a more tactical approach or attack all-swords-swinging, Anvil of Dawn features a hybrid of real-time and turn-based combat to satisfy your needs. Remember, your choices and actions affect the ebb and flow of combat so think, and act, wisely. Are you prepared to pay the ultimate price, to steal away the gift of a dark god, and journey to the Anvil of Dawn.
  • A tough, but accessible to newer players, classic RPG with a vast world to explore!
  • Features a "learn by doing" skill system without the need to collect and grind for experience points.
  • Customize your character as you see fit as there are plenty of character stats to fine-tune to your liking.

Memories from Childhood

I always wonder how strong are childhood memories. This game is dark with desperate atmosphere of the conquered land... A reason to play this game could be the same as for watching horror films, lack of dark emotions.

Awesome Classic by A company I loved

The intro and some cut sequences look primitive by today's standards but I loved this game quite a bit. Automapping you could print, somatic spell casting, decent voice acting for the time and a good blobber all around. Originally I guess I always got the bad ending. I honestly thought that was the only ending and that the hero had to sacrifice himself for all; sort of like a JC bible story I guess. Years later I read there is a story end where you live. Still, that stayed in my brain for a long time. Death animations are awesome.

Not the best but a worthy classic!

It's not the best of the dungeon crawlers, and it has many of the same problems but it is still a pretty nicely done one, certainly it will challenge and frustrate you but in the end that's what you expect from this genre. This game tried some new things, not all of them worked but you can see that there were attempts at innovation. So glad I voted to get this added here :)

Dull

Could not get into this at all. It got boring so fast. On a technical level I have no complaints, I prefer the "step by step" scrolling and I love dungeon crawlers, but boy is this one DULL!
