Silver, a corrupt and sinister sorcerer, rules the land of Jarrah with an iron fist. He and his henchmen have abducted the village women as part of a pact with the almighty god, Apocalypse. Now, only one man can put a stop to Silver and his minions. That man is you, David, a promising young knight whose wife is among the captured. In order to succeed you'll need to recruit allies, master your swordplay, learn the art of magic, and venture through hostile worlds teeming with Silver's corrupt followers to find 8 lost artifacts. Begin your quest, and become a hero!
Silver is the European answer to JRPGs, which were very popular at the time. With eye-candy in the form of pre-rendered 2D backgrounds, manga-inspired character design, and console-style gameplay, it introduced PC gamers to a new genre. This game is very unique on PC as there are only a few such titles on this platform, so if you feel like trying a different approach to role-playing, then this is a title for you!
Form your party from a cast of interesting and diverse characters, each with their own unique traits.
Gripping story and polished gameplay combine to make a “simple” RPG that’s still a lot of fun.
Unique combat system with real-time, fast-paced action--you assume direct control over one of the characters, and the rest of your team fights on their own.
I rebought it after i saw it was translated but whenever i try to run in italian i get DVDCHAR dialog error randomly trough the game, witch crashes me to desktop, so i cannot reccommend unless you want to play in english.
Scenery is very good, story is nondescript, characters are just passable, control in battle is rather bad.
It would still be enjoyable, but there are blocking bugs that seem to depend on the computer the game is played on.
My suggestion: avoid it if you play for fun and not for frustration.
I had a subscription to a PC gaming magazine, which had a demo CD with it every month, and one month the cover of the CD had Silver on it. It looked cool, and there weren't many other demos on it. The magazine reviewed the game as well, and gave it high remarks. I felt I just had to try this, and try it I did.
I was blown away by that demo! The prerendered graphics in the backgrounds, the beautifully designed environments, the smooth and innovative fighting system, the voice acting (which to me was still a pretty new thing, at the time) and the excitement of the story all just made me sad when the demo ended. So I played it again. And again. And then a few more times. Then I couldn't stop myself anymore, as I went and dipped into my savings, got on my bike and went to the nearest place where they sold games and bought it. Just like that.
I hurried home, installed it and started it up.Even though I had played the beginning so many times in the demo, I still loved it this time too, excited to see what happened after the demo ended hoping it would just as amazing. Oh man, was it amazing!
It was one of the greatest adventures I've had in a game, and still is to this date. I can't recommend this game enough, it just needs to be played. You won't regret it!
