Betrayal At Krondor
Heroes of steel rpg episode 4. Betrayal at Krondor is a DOS-based role-playing video game developed by Dynamix and published by Sierra On-Line in 1993. Betrayal at Krondor takes place largely in Midkemia, the fantasy world developed by Raymond E.
Feist in his Riftwar novels. The game is designed to resemble a book, separated into chapters and narrated in the third-person with a quick-save bookmark feature.Although neither the dialog nor narrative were written by Feist himself, the game is considered canon as it was later novelized by Feist as Krondor: The Betrayal, and events in the game were subsequently written into his later Riftwar novels.PyroTechnix completed a long-anticipated sequel, Return to Krondor, which was released by Sierra in 1998. Its protracted development experienced considerable problems, and the finished product not nearly as warmly received as Betrayal.

One of the best RPGs ever made, Betrayal at Krondor is a classic example of games that get rave reviews yet do poorly in stores (at least until it was re-released on CD-ROM).Flat 'paper-doll' digitized graphics is just about the only criticism you can level at this classic, which features an excellent plot written by best-selling fantasy author Raymond Feist (who also had considerable input in the design process), memorable characters, cool spellcasting interface, and an abundance of optional sub-quests and riddle chests. Sierra made the game freeware in 1997 to promote their own sequel Betrayal at Antara (which, without Feist' s input, is a pale shadow of its predecessor). Suffice to say that noone can claim to be an old-time RPGer if they have never set foot in Krondor:)Note: Although the CD version is for sale for only $5 at E CD-ROM shop, it is the cut-down, 'Sierra Classic' version that includes neither the interview with Raymond Feist nor the CD music.
It also includes no manual:/ You are therefore advised to either go buy it somewhere else, or download our near-complete CD rip below.Review By HOTUD External links.
