About This Game Avernum is an epic fantasy role-playing adventurer set in an enormous, subterranean nation. Avernum is a land underground, a subterranean nation full of rogues, misfits, and brigands, struggling for survival and wealth in the monster-infested darkness. You have been banished to the underworld, never to see the light of day again. The surface is ruled by the cruel Emperor Hawthorne, master of the Empire. All of the known lands are subject to his brutal command. Everyone who speaks out, misbehaves or doesn’t fit in is cast into the dark, volcanic pits of Avernum, far below the surface.

The game is massive, with lots of dungeons, encounters, towns and quests. Expect to drop 40+ hours completing it, if not more. There are multiple endings, and lots of plot. All in all, if you like detailed turn based RPGs in the classic mode, this is absolutely a game for you. on top of that, the low cost makes it an excellent buy, especiall considering the amount of time a playthough of this game can take.. I am very disappointed in this game. Ok. Many people tell this game is very terrific as RPG. Yes. it was not bad about game design. Even graphic and sound is crude, like reading novel gives me new experience and text about depicting characters is very alive and fresh, But game system is really terrible. Battle? some battle is really easy, but suddenly become very difficult. And the most thing which makes me annoyed is traveling among town. Even though pylone(teleport fuction) exists, there are so many travelings among many various towns for completing many quests. It made me exausted in late game. Also marker for solving quest is so vague. Ok, I admit that this game offers gamer much freedom. But if you are not player who get used to play this kind of game. You can be annoyed easily. For me, it is one of the worst game ever.. Pretty sure most people know what they're getting into by now with Spiderweb games.This is a remake of a remake, a turn-based, party RPG with an open world, tons of quests, and a legitimately interesting world and story.It's not going to change your life, but it will pass the time pleasantly to be sure.. One of the best RPG's ever, has excellent pacing and you can fly through and read every box of dialog about every cave you run into or go spells a blazing and destroy the world if you want.. I recommend this game for true fans of Role Play. If however your take on a RPG is Diablo or Torchlight, forget it.There is probably more storyline in this small download than in the entire Skyrim. There are many long hours of play ahead. I did a restart about 2/3 of the way through as my party was not strong enough and I had not distributed t6he party stats well, combined I have nearly spent as many hours now on this game as I did with DragonAge inquisition.Despite the old school graphics there is quite variety of terrain to explore.The character development is good and straddles the boundary between too simple or too complex well. I suggest you pay attention to creating a balanced party, which is also an area that I feel could be improved. It is too easy to create parties that will simply not work. Having a bow user sounds great, but the game is heavily weighted to swords.Another area which could be improved is the character conversation scripts. Old storylines do not disappear and too often you get into a dialogue that you have already been through a million times before with the NPC – it is almost as if the same people that wrote the NPC scripting for Divinity Original Sin did this one too.. Awesome game! A great example of gameplay over graphics and the story is great too! The only downside is the UI that takes some getting used to but that shouldn't take too long. If you like CRPG style games with a turn based battle system and don't care much for graphics then you should check this game out for sure!!. I first encountered a shareware demo of Exile on a cd-rom packaged with one of the first issues of a magazine called Mac Addict when the only computers I had access to were an aging Commodore 64 and my parents' Mac Quadras. While my friends with Windows were playing Warcraft and Command and Conquer, I fell into the world beneath the Empire.There's a reason Jeff and Mariann have retold this story 3 times now. It's a good one, and the formula doesn't need much updating. I still recognize all the sound effects from that first shareware demo.. I really enjoy this game. It is a turn-based, isometric view (Diablo-style view looking down from above), single-player fantasy roleplaying game. Let me break that down:Turn-Based: While not in combat you move your party around exploring wilderness, dungeon, and city environments and interacting with various friendly and hostile NPCs (non-player characters controlled by the computer). When battle starts, the game goes into turn-based mode. People who like the fast and furious action of real-time games like Diablo might find turn-based combat to be slow and tedious. I like it because I can let my attention wander if need be or even walk away for a restroom break right in the middle of battle. It also allows for the formulation of tactics based on the battlefield conditions.Isometric View: Many RPGs in the 90s used isometric view. The view is from above and slightly at an angle like the Diablo games. It's nice because you get a kind of "god's eye view" of the game area.Single-Player: There is no multiplayer option for Avernum: Escape From the Pit.Fantasy Roleplaying Game: The environment is traditional "Western medieval style fantasy" (i.e., swords and armor and spells and fantasy monsters). There is a bit of a twist in that the game opens up with your being exiled via magic teleportation to a supposedly inescapable underworld where criminals and political prisoners are sent when they cause problems for the Empire.You can choose from a number of traditional classes (sorcerer, warrior, rogue, berserker, priest, etc.) or you can create your own classes. The pre-made classes are merely certain selections from the game's many abilities, skills, and powers available to characters both when they are created and as they level up. Selecting a pre-made class does not pidgeon hole your character because as you level up you can choose to improve any abilities, skills and powers.There are multiple difficulties to choose from ranging from beginner to nightmare. You can even change difficulty whenever you wish. So things are going to easy? Notch up the difficulty. Getting frustrated by how hard the play is? Notch it down.For $10 you absolutely cannot go wrong. This is a fantasy RPG in the tradition of 90s games. I used to play the SSI gold box D&D computer games and Avernum is a great game in the same tradition.
