Darklands
Description
Prepare yourself to enter Darklands - the first realistic fantasy role-playing game. Leading a band of four adventurers across the sinister landscape of 15th Century Germany, you’ll face the Middle Ages as people believed it to be: land filled with mythical beasts, religious power-mongers, and bloodthirsty robber-knights!
Watch savage battles unfold before your eyes! Travel hundreds of miles by land and sea from Frisian Coast to Bohemia, from the alps to Prussia, visiting over ninety cities along the way.
Your quest for fame and fortune can take you through raucous city streets and dark mine shafts, or from a robber knight’s tower to the terrifying Witches' Sabbath! Get ready for the astonishing wonders of a realistic fantasy adventure in the mysterious Darklands!
We share the earnest reasons that make a classic game so dear to us!
Recommended by Judas, Technical Customer Support Specialist at GOG: If you're looking for an RPG that is different from the usual Dungeons & Dragons fare from the early 1990s then look no further. Set in medieval Germany, Darklands offers real time with pause combat and an interesting magic system that uses the power of prayer and alchemy. Break apart witch covens, perform quests for the Hanseatic League, and free people from the oppressive rule of various Raubritters (robber barons).

@Aeril
Aeril, I know this is not part of this review, but how do you mod out the quest in Oblivion? Would love to do that, since I also like good old sandbox games, such as the awesome Darklands, Elite, etc. Thanks!

Bad bonus content
The Game is perfect but bonus content is awful - they just downloaded manuals and soundtrack from "darklands.net" and want 6 bucks for that - its very bad.
