Silversword

Frequently updated, the game now offers an expansion, German and French translations, and an online discussion forum with announcements, tips and cheats, feature requests, etc.

The game takes place in the fantasy world of Tarnak, which is now running wild with dangerous monsters and bands of thieves since an evil presence began infecting the land.

Players control a band of adventurers (created at the beginning or by using the party provided with the game) who use the Castle Cranbourgh as their base of operations at the outset.

An in-app purchase ("Rise of the Dragons") allows the party to continue on to a new series of maps, monsters, and adventures as large and complex (if not more so) as the original game.

Seven races are available for players to choose from: barbarians, dwarves, elves, gnomes, hobbits, humans, and high-men, all with different characteristics that affect game play.

When you're done, you'll love it enough to buy the "Rise of the Dragons" expansion!The game was rated "Excellent" (Editor's Choice) by PC Magazine,[15] which wrote:It's hours of fun for anyone who was a fan of Ultima, Bard's Tale, or Wizardry.

In my mind, though, it's the excellent support and updates from Silversword's passionate creator that make this an Editors' Choice and an example of what a mobile app should be.The game received an 8.7 out of 10 by Gamepro.de.
