Blade Warrior

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Blade Warrior is a computer game, released in 1996 by Phantagram.

The world has been enslaved by Murk, and users are challenged to free it by collecting the seven fragments of a tablet which are in the possession of seven wizards who inhabit seven towers.

The game is a mix of adventuring and battling, in which users are tasked with collecting magical items and exploring the landscape of the game via the in-game map, all the while being assaulted by 'baddies'. Various facilities in the game are accessible only when a certain number of artifacts have been collected. A notable feature of Blade Warrior is the graphical interface: all objects in the game are seen in silhouette. The background is made up drawn night sky, with clouds and hills etc. The technique is atmospheric.
