Of Timeless Charm

by on 16th Oct 2012

Talisman Prologue beckons. There must be some magic still in the world because Nomad Games Limited has secured the rights from Games Workshop to develop a digital version of the famed Talisman strategy role-playing board game.

The blurb:

For those unfamiliar with this classic world of fantasy adventures, Talisman is a game like no other – indeed, it is no ordinary game at all, but a fantastic quest in a world of magic and monsters.

As play progresses, a story unfolds from turn to turn: a heroic epic of brave deeds, of daring encounters, of treasures and magic, of battles fought and sometimes lost, but always a tale that challenges and enthrals!

In Talisman Prologue, you take the role of 10 characters on a series of epic quests. Fight your way through hordes of monstrous creatures and cast powerful magic spells along the way.

The board will eventually fill up with encounters which can help or hinder your progress at which point the game becomes even more challenging and tactical.

Due to the random nature of the card drawing and dice rolling, you will never have the same adventure twice! Stories are created as you complete your quests which are different every time.

Features:

• 10 classic characters from the board game
• 50 quests to play through
• Original soundtrack
• Endless replayability

The game is currently single-player but the developers have said a future multiplayer game is absolutely in the cards as well.

Pre-orders are now available giving immediate access to the beta and a demo is also already on hand (i.e. here). Also be sure to support Nomad Games by Greenlighting the game here.

The release date is slated for November 15th.
