Game: Blade Warrior

The world has been enslaved by Murk, and you've got to free it by collecting the seven fragments of a tablet which are in the possession of seven wizards who inhabit seven towers. Blade Warrior is an incredibly unique game in two ways. Firstly you've got the graphics. Everything in this game is seen in silhouette. That's right, as you wander around looking for magical items and killing baddies, all you see is your sihouette and the silhouette of everything around you. The background is made up nicely drawn night sky, with coulds and hills etc. This, along with nice sounds and excellent animation make for an incredible atmosphere. Secondly, the game is an unusual mix of adventuring and battling. On your way to collecting magical items and exploring the huge ingame map, you're assaulted by baddies. Then once you have collected certain artefacts you can conjure up spells (so long as you have the recipe) back in your tower, trade with wizards for those all important tablet pieces and get clues to the next important artefacts.
Each game uses different controls, most DOS games use the keyboard arrows. Some will use the mouse , "Alt" ,"Enter" and "Space bar".
