Icewind Dale
RPG set in the Forgotten Realms universe. It employs the Infinity engine and is very similar to the hit game, Baldur's Gate. Unlike that game, you create a entire party of characters. You can create all six or start out with less and add others later. A wide selection of character classes is available including mages and warriors. The gameplay involves exploration, combat and item collection/trading. Characters gain experience points by performing mini-quests and killing monsters. Up to eighteenth level characters are possible, considerably higher than in Baldur's Gate. The main plot revolves around a quest to uncover the force behind an early winter that has hit the land, threatening the food supply.
The quest will see your party passing through massive complexes in a variety of settings that include a volcano and ancient citadel. The game's graphics are similar to those in Bladur's Gate. The control system and interface are effective. Alongside the main single-player game, is a multi-player mode for games over LAN or on-line.
