Story:The Shadows of Mordor is an officially licensed J.R.R. Tolkien "Lord of the Rings" text adventure game based on the second part of the trilogy - "The Two Towers". You can select to play as either Frodo or Sam. The game follows the plot of the book closely and many locations have accompanying illustrations. Unusually for a text adventure game, the action happens in real time: if you sit there thinking of what to do next, things will happen in the game, e.g. creatures will move from location to location.Show more

Abandoned Places: A Time for Heroes
Abandoned Places: A Time for HeroesIn this RPG, you play the role of four heroes whose mission is to save their world, Kalynthia, from the evil arch mage Bronagh. Most of the time, while exploring the over world, the game is shown in a 2D top-down view. It gives you much freedom: there's more to do than just stick to the main quest. Towns have a static interface where you reach the wished location by pressing the according symbol. e.g. a church for healing up or a sage for hints. During dungeon crawls the game switches to a 3D view and plays similar to Dungeon Master. As usual for this kind of games you see the dungeon in a small windows while your characters are shown on the right hand side of the screen. Dungeon sequences are completely in real-time. This includes combat which basically consists of clicking on a character's weapon or magic spell and then clicking on the monster. After every usage of a weapon/spell you have to wait a certain time until you can use it again.

Black & White 2
Black & White 2In the game, the player takes the role of a god called from the void (nothingness) to help those who invoked them. However, the player is not an omnipotent style god, but rather a god who rises and falls with his believers and the player must help develop their nature according to their good or evil desires. The player also has a creature, their physical representation in the world, which takes the form of an anthropomorphic ape, lion, wolf, turtle, cow, or tiger. Its physical manifestation can grow to an immense size, and adopt a good or evil persona separate of the player's. They develop their character as the player rewards or punishes their actions. In addition to the god simulation and city-building elements introduced in the original Black & White, Black & White 2 also features elements of real-time strategy gameplay, with the addition of controllable warfare and fighting units.

Tomb Raider: 10th Anniversary Edition
Tomb Raider: 10th Anniversary EditionTomb Raider: 10th Anniversary Edition (TRAE) was the last Tomb Raider game developed by Core Design, the original creators of the franchise. In 2003, due to poor sales of Tomb Raider: The Angel of Darkness, Eidos Interactive took away Tomb Raider franchise from Core Design and assigned Crystal Dynamics to work on the next game in the series (Tomb Raider: Legend). TRAE was developed soon after Tomb Raider: Legend, but was later canned by Eidos in favour of Crystal Dynamics' "Tomb Raider: Anniversary". Nevertheless TRAE is actively being restored by the fans and is playable on PC. It is completely different to Tomb Raider: Anniversary in a sense that it keeps the original levels whilst adding more to them with better level geometry and new moves.
