DEFEAT DRAGONS, GOBLINS AND DARK ELVES IN A MYSTERIOUS FANTASY WORLD
FANTASY RPG SILVERFALL EARTH AWAKENING COMING SOON
Silverfall Earth Awakening is the new fantasy RPG for PC from Monte Cristo Games. A stand alone extension for Silverfall, this exciting action game launches in August 2008, taking place in a mysterious fantasy world. Whilst travelling across the unknown territories of Nelwë, players will need to battle with an impressive array of formidable creatures in order to save the realm.
Players can choose to play as one of six races - Humans, Elves, Goblins, Trolls and two new tribes, the stocky Dwarves and treacherous Lizardmen. Each race has skills specific only to them. Elves are skilled archers, Trolls have great strength and Goblins are dexterous and intelligent.
There are over 150 skills and magic spells to be mastered including 8 '˜Ultimate' skills and 12 unique '˜High Level' skills used to cause devastating effects. Players can also use object crafting skills to create armour, weapons and enchantments. A special crafting tool creates thousands of items by combining shapes, textures, colours and types of magic. Players can completely customise their equipment, design weapons for other players and exchange certain items when in multiplayer mode.
Fans of the original Silverfall game can import their character into Earth Awakening, making the most of any previous skills and equipment they have gained. Alternatively, newcomers can start the adventure from the beginning with a new character.
Silverfall Earth Awakening allows up to eight players to play together in the cooperative multiplayer mode or to battle against each other in the Player vs. Player (PVP) multiplayer mode via LAN or via the Internet.
