Description
Grotesque - Heroes Hunted is a refreshing, story-intensive blend of traditional fantasy with depth (e.g. Gothic, Final Fantasy, Baldur's Gate) and adventure elements with black humour (e.g.. Planescape Torment, Fallout, Monkey Island).
As opposed to the myriad of action RPGs that are being released, the main focus of Grotesque is an atmospheric and dense story line, a very diversified game progression and very distinctive, charismatic characters that you will remember for a very long time. Indeed, you will be able to form real relationships and even be able to fall in love.
Hereby, whilst the strategic battle systems such as UI and Handling do resemble those in RPGs like World of Warcraft and Guild Wars, this is simply to enable RPG gamers to get an introduction to the game quickly and without frustration.. The spectacular special manoeuvres and plenty of combo-manoeuvres of the many NPCs ensure an optical gladiatorial treat. The story influences and the personalities of the opponents contribute to Grotesque being a cut above the rest even in battle scenes. Weapons art meets with oral combat, magic with martial arts and arrogance with clumsiness.
Grotesque - Heroes Hunted carries these atmospheric story influences through into the quests. The special clue is the adventure elements in the riddles and dialogues, inspired by the Lucas Arts legends, which make sure that the quests do not simply degenerate into bleak assembling or slaughter.
Whatever you are missing in other fantasy RPGs you will find in Grotesque!
Just imagine, you wake up one day and find yourself suddenly transported into a totally different world.
The story of Grotesque concerns Roger Sun, an everyday hero from the present, who is neither particularly strong nor particularly honourable. He is the guitarist in a heavy metal band, loves animals and is a huge fan of RPG and adventures. Through a mysterious artefact, a richly decorated antique mirror, he is sucked into another world and lands, complete with his lounge furnishings, right in the midst of a conflict between the alliance of humans and elves and grass-like creatures. It seems as though the eternal battle between light and dark of this game that has been going on for years suddenly becomes serious and turns to become his reality. But Roger had never realised that a hero's life, as a prospective chosen one, would be anything like this. The forces of the light that Roger urgently needs as co-combatants and friends, emerge mostly as arrogant, egotistical and to some extent even engage in inter-fighting. When the vampires, Dawnclaude & Solithaire, appear and with sadistic fiendishness hunt down anything human, it becomes quite clear that they are merely the forerunners of a very angry and murky power, a power that would not remain unaware of the sudden appearance of Roger Sun...
