'Stranger' - 4 New Screens

by Rainier on June 18, 2007 @ 3:32 p.m. PDT

Stranger is a real-time strategy game, with elements of role playing games set in a world, split in two parts, surface and a subterranean one, which are in a tenuous balance. Stranger will also feature multiplayer, although details beyond "The players may play on their own, or unite in teams" are a bit sketchy.

The game Stranger is set in a magical world of its own. The whole universe and its inhabitants will immerse players in a hostile world full of tough encounters and battles. As players take control over three distinct heroes, the story unfolds as these three fight to save their immortal souls and overcome their destiny.

Kagar, Steiger and Mordlock are very different characters, but yet share the same destiny. Wrongfully expelled from their home world for the use of magic, these three find themselves teleported to a strange and hostile land, full of fearsome monsters and relics so powerful to tear armies to pieces. Having been enemies in the world they come from, all of them know that the key to survival is to stick together and fight side by side and combine their abilities if they ever want to make their way back home and take revenge on those who expelled them…

Kagar loves two things: a fierce battle and his lightning spell. That's why they call him Kagar the Lightning. He's quick to move through enemy hordes with his superb sword skills. Being unbeaten in countless battles, he does engage in a fight without caring about friend of foe. If his blade is not enough to overcome the enemy, he will use his beloved lightning spell to strike his opponents. And if that's not enough, his Fire Shield spell will do the rest.

Backed-up by allies, he can overcome any army. Kagar is the choice for players who like to engage directly in battle and use brute force.

  • RPG blended with some of the best RTS elements
