Profezia
Profezia is set sometime during the Middle Ages, in a mountain area between
the two Italian regions of Abruzzo and Lazio. The player takes control of a
mercenary who has been hired to retrieve a golden crown from the castle of
Capistrello, where Duke Attilio intends to use it on an ancient Pagan rite.
Profezia is an adventure game with a multiple-choice interface: as opposed to
classic adventures where the player is free to roam around the game world (or
part of it), the storyline in Profezia develops automatically. Whenever an
action is to be taken, the player is presented with a set of choices, which
will affect the rest of the adventure.
It is worth noting that there is no unique path to complete the game: the
player may follow alternate branches, provided that the actions which follow
are coherent with their previous choices.
