Based on the iconic and genre-defining Dungeons & Dragons tabletop adventure of the same name, and using the 3.5 edition of the tabletop ruleset coupled with intense tactical combat, The Temple of Elemental Evil challenges adventurers to explore the titular temple, facing off against monsters and cultists while dealing with four elemental-themed factions who are at war with one another!
The Temple of Elemental Evil was first released in 2003 and has since garnered a passionate community around it. Over the years, fans have added a lot to the game and kept it alive in ways we really admire. This version builds on that work, and we’re genuinely thankful to everyone who’s helped along the way.
An evil demoness founded a cult dedicated to exploring evil in its most elemental forms. This cult was based in a temple just outside the village of Hommlet in a vile shire known as Nulb. Soon, this cult ruled the region with tyranny; times of chaos and violence ensued. Hard-fought battles were waged and the war was eventually won by the good armies of nearby lands. The temple was razed, the villains were imprisoned, and order was restored.
The temple itself faded into distant memory...until now.
Originally planned for September, publisher SNEG is delighted to announce that The Temple of Elemental Evil: A Classic Greyhawk Adventure will be released for PC (Steam) on December 10th.
