Shamed from their homeland, in pursuit of their own, united
by destiny, a fighter, a sorcerer and a rogue. In a land of
mystery and enchantment, they must find the Demon Stone and
recapture the warring leaders before the Realms are doomed
for ever...
Five
months after it was available on the PS2 Forgotten Realms:
Demon Stone is finally released for the Xbox.
In
this Dungeons and Dragons style fantasy game you
direct a party of three characters - fighter, sorcerer and
rogue. The player controls one party member at a time - switching
between them on the fly - while the other party members are
controlled by the engine's artificial intelligence. For example,
when the player controls the fighter, the sorcerer and rogue
will continue to engage in combat, cast spells and assist
the player in defeating all challengers.
In many situations, the characters will be able to divide
and conquer difficult objectives - while the fighter holds
back a horde of Yuan-Ti snakemen with brute force, the sorcerer
supports him with his magic while the rogue sneaks above and
behind them in order to finish them off.
This real-time, on-the-fly character switching design allows
Forgotten Realms: Demon Stone to challenge players
with various encounters. Each of the characters excels at
a certain type of gameplay. The fighter thrives in melee combat,
the sorcerer is excellent at ranged and magical combat and
the rogue excels at jumping, sneaking and disarming traps.
Part
of the skill of this game is working out which character you
need to play during each challenge - get it wrong and your
team may come to a sticky end, get it right and you'll be
mocking your opponents.
It
looks and play fantastically. This is a game for those who
like big action, pretty graphics and engaging gameplay.
