About this game
With these haunting words, the Magic Council sends you off on a quest filled with danger, magic and puzzles in a land replete with untamed wilderness, quaint hamlets, majestic castles, labyrinthine catacombs and dark dungeons.
Prophecy of the Shadow is a classic single-character role-playing game in a mystical fantasy.
90s cinematics with over fifty digitized art and animation sequences, including characters in full costume.
Simple point-and-click interface with icon-based commands and graphical inventories makes the game fast and easy to play. Learn words and converse from an icon bar by clicking on the word.
Three perspective viewpoints: an adventure view allows you to explore this exciting world and engage in combat; an up-close-and-personal mode lets you converse with NPC Characters; and through the use of magic, an eagle's view of the world.
A large, complex world - both above and below ground - that you must save!
