Long ago, in a land ravaged by strife, an ancient race crafted
the ultimate weapon to destroy their enemies and end all wars.
They called it the Aryx Orthian, the Scourge of the Worlds.
Hidden safely for hundreds of years, the Scourge is now sought
by a new swarm of darkness threatening to unleash its secrets.
To save the world, three fearless heroes - Redgar the human
warrior, Lidda the rogue halfling, and Mialee the elf wizard
- must embark on a treacherous quest and choose between honour
and evil, between life and death...
Scourge
Of Worlds: A Dungeons And Dragons Adventure is a medieval
fantasy interactive movie. The innovative movie combines more
than 20 decision points, four different endings and more than
990 possible story combinations allowing viewers and fans
of the original role-playing game to choose their own adventure.
At
last! Someone has recognised the real potential that can be
unlocked by the DVD format. Instead of having a straightforward
movie with some extras - which let's be honest you are unlikely
to watch more than once, if at all - this DVD allows the user
to truly interact with the movie. You can decide what happens
to our heroes, or in the very least have a say in what you
would do if you were one of them.
Your
very first choice will drastically alter the turn of events
that unfold later in the game. The ending itself (if you do
it correctly) is always fairly similar - it must be if you
are to save the planet. But, it is how you get there that
alters. And the closer you get to the end, the more tricky
those options become.
There
are a number of choices which will leave your characters dead,
or deciding not to follow the path to save the planet. But
fear not. Once your mission has failed you are given the option
to start the movie from a number of earlier decisions you
made.
We
have been playing this game as a group in the office for several
days now and we are still not bored of playing it and there
looks to be no end to the amusement. Kids are going to love
this release. Not only can they watch a cool movie, but they
get to have a say in what the characters do... How cool is
that? Not only that, but older players will gain amusement
from the constant bickering between the three main characters.
You
don't have to be a Dungeons & Dragons fan to follow
what is going on. And while the actual CGI animation is not
up to the standard of movies like Shrek it is still
pretty good.
Certainly
the most fun we've had with a DVD.
