Dragon Wars Overview
Dragon Wars is set in Dilmun, a once peaceful island now corrupted by the antagonist Namtar. The player begins with a party of four characters in the city of Purgatory, initially lacking equipment and unable to use magic due to a ban. A primary goal involves restoring the use of magic.
The gameplay operates from a first person perspective with step by step movement, where enemies appear randomly. Combat is turn based, and the overall style is reminiscent of the Bard's Tale series. However, it expands on that foundation with a comprehensive skill system and an auto map feature.
Success depends on careful allocation of skill points, making character development challenging. The broader objectives include survival, escaping the starting city, and ultimately confronting Namtar, while also acquiring better gear during the journey.
