Players choose
one of seven heroes in Kingdom Under Fire: A War of
Heroes, then begin an adventure in a land that's torn by
the War of the Xok Knights or the War of the Heroes. You
can choose the Light side and play as Curian the orphan
warrior, Keither the famous knight, or Moonlight the
legendary magician. Or you can play as a hero of the Dark
side. Rick Blood leads this group by virtue of his skill
at arms. Likuku the ogre, Amaruak the lich, and Richter
Rosenheim, an ancient vampire, all chafe under Blood's
rule and plot against him, each other, and the Light side.
The story will be familiar to fantasy fans: the continent
of Bersiah is gripped by epic struggles between the
peoples of Light and the vile creatures of Darkness. There
are 20 missions for each race, plus seven story missions
for each hero. As the missions unfold, players learn
truths about the last war and relationships between
heroes. The game combines the best elements that are found
in role-playing games like Diablo and Baldur's Gate, and
real-time strategy games like WarCraft and Warlords. Each
mission contains RPG-type action and dialogue events.
After victorious battles, your character's experience will
allow you to increase abilities and powers.
Visually, there are six sets of background schemes (those
of dungeons have modulation effects) and 120,000 frames of
character animation. The game contains 70 units, three
types of resources, and hundreds of items. Up to eight
players will be able to play simultaneously in ladder-mode
and league-mode multiplayer games over the Internet!! |
