DESCRIPTION

Avernum 5 is an enormous fantasy role-playing adventure. Wander a gigantic world, full of multitudes of characters, hundreds of side quests, and traps, tricks, and treasure in every corner. Experience the life of an adventurer: the fame, the wealth, the hapless townsfolk begging you for help at every turn! This epic tale is guaranteed to give you weeks of entertainment, with an impossibly huge world that dares you to uncover all of its secrets.

The Story...

The surface world is ruled by the Empire. Its power is absolute. Its control is unchallenged. And, as a soldier of the Empire, you have a good, comfortable life ahead of you. But then a rebel named Dorikas tried to assassinate the Empress, and everything went wrong for you.

The villain fled somewhere into Avernum, an underworld nation of eccentrics, misfits, and barely civilized monsters, most of whom hate the Empire. And that is where you are going. You must find Dorikas, while dealing with spies, betrayal, and assassins at every turn.

The enemy is waiting for you. You will only survive his attention with the help of these strange cave dwellers. If, of course, they don’t kill you first.

FUELLEMANN  One of the deepest storylines and one of the best RPGs beside Baldurs Gate II. Don´t hesitate because of the graphic - the game is brilliant!  (Version 1.0.3)

AL_GIOVANNI  Hey, Spider Web -- your MU icon doesn't do this game justice! That blurred, low-res dragon made me hesitate. I'm glad I downloaded the game, but I gotta admit, my very first impression was shaky. Just my 2 cents...

I'd also recommend you add a screenshot to this page. How 'bout it?

Otherwise... great game. Very involving!  (Version 1.0)

SWILK  Spiderweb Software got me into mac gaming. Unfortunately, none of my friends understand why a 20 year old college girl opts for avernum in darkness rather than beer soaked frat parties. I'll tell you why: the game is amazing. I enjoy being able to control my own destiny in this game. No other RPG I've played allows me to do whatever I want, even killing the peasants! If you're a graphics snob, this game might not appeal to you, but it will challenge your brain and make you laugh.   (Version 1.1.4)
