Hence the title, Avernum 3: Ruined World. Various plagues of monsters have overrun the world and have the people there on the verge of collapse. As your group heads out into the world, you quickly find that there was a reason that the Empire has gone quiet for so long.
HLTB AVERNUM 6 SERIES
You'll have to imagine it, since as you might have noticed from the screenshots, Avernum is not a series to be played for its stunning visuals. Stepping out into the sunlight is a very cool moment, where you can imagine the joy of your characters as they see the world they were banished from for the first time in many years, or perhaps ever. Your orders are simple but broad: go to the surface, learn everything you can, and then report back what you find. Forts, because Avernum is of course filled with dangerous beasts and other races which aren't too excited about sharing their home.Īvernum 3 opens with your party of adventurers being selected to head up to the surface following loss of contact with the first group of explorers. As more and more people are teleported down into this subterranean continent, they eventually begin to build up a civilization of their own, with towns and forts spread across the land. This world is made up of massive caverns that stretch on for miles and are helpfully lit up by glowing flora.
The series is set in a fantasy world where an all powerful Empire controls the known world with an iron fist and sends those it doesn't like into exile in an underground world, Avernum.
If you aren't familiar with the series you might be wondering, if this is Avernum 3, what happened in the first two games? Well, there isn't nearly enough time to explain it all here in detail, but we can hit the highlights and bring the story up to where Avernum 3 begins. Vogel has spent literally decades pumping out these kinds of RPG's and mastering his craft, and it shows in this newest release. Although the game isn't entirely new, it has been greatly improved and expanded on since those previous releases. The game is actually a remaster of a remake of Exile 3 which came out way back in the 90's. Avernum 3: Ruined World is the latest release from the prolific mind of Jeff Vogel over at Spiderweb Software.
