"The dreaded Prophecy long foretold is nearly upon us! The rise of the Shadow Lord will surely mark the fall of civilization as we know it. Brave adventurer, you must not let this come to pass!"
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!
