Explore a realm of myth and mystery, for fantasy and reality collide in the land of Avalon. The Knights of the Round have failed, and new heroes must emerge. Hope is not lost, for the Champions of Avalon are not entirely of our world. A new Grail Quest has begun.
## About This Game
“Beware the schemes of mortal men. For all the shortness of their lives, they
lust to leave their mark. Before this hubris, even the Gods can be tumbled.” –
Merlin the Outcast
To some, Avalon is an idea, a myth, an ideal, perfection; it is a place
outside of time or space, an eternal edifice. To others, it is home. The
Avalonians share much with Humanity, but one cannot remain in Avalon for long
without becoming something… else. Long ago, in the forgotten age of The
Migration, the Covenant was formed: the bridges between realms would be
closed.
Their greatest criminals, however, continued to be cast out forever to
languish in the mundane realm. Some lived as Oracles, Saints, or Wizards.
Others we remember in legends of darkness: Sorcerers, Shapeshifters, Blood-
drinkers, scattered across time.
Now though, the realms grow close once again, the veil between them weakening
by unknown machinations. The Grail has been stolen, and without it, evils long
buried are rising in ever greater numbers. The call to battle has gone out for
the first time in this age, and many have answered it. These new defenders of
the ancient Covenant must not fail, for the fate of both realms now hangs in
the balance.
A Blast From the Past
Return to an era before all stats were homogenized into just health and mana.
Avalon: Sacred Crusade takes heavy inspiration from popular RPG titles of the
1990s and features rich character customization that allows you to select your
character’s origin, attributes, spells, and equipment.
No easy recoveries or quick wins here. Deal with a classic death penalty
system where you drop your items on the ground and need to retrieve them.
Experience what it was truly like to play early MMORPGs and graphical MUDs.
You may choose to adventure alone, however, the game features a robust party
system which allows up to six players to work together in the same group. For
the best experience, bring your friends – or make new ones in the game!
An Authentic Retro Experience
Listen to classic 16-bit Sound Blaster effects while you slash away at pre-
rendered 2D sprites. You can experience all of this without the usual hassle
of running a retro game on a modern system. Avalon: Sacred Crusade will run on
any DirectX 10 capable PC!
