Description:

The following text is taken from the Neverwinter Nights web site:

'Neverwinter Nights (NWN) is a new Advanced Dungeons & Dragons (AD&D) roleplaying game from BioWare, the developers of Baldur's Gate and Tales of the Sword Coast. Neverwinter Nights has been designed specifically for the online, multiplayer environment and the latest in 3D technology and also allows you to experience all the magic of pen-and-paper Dungeon-Mastering on your home computer! Using Neverwinter Nights' powerful and user-friendly Solstice Toolset, you can create and populate entire new modular worlds and stories for others to adventure in. As an all-powerful Dungeon Master (DM), Neverwinter Nights even allows you to alter the plot, possess characters, and manage combat from behind the scenes, all in real-time.

The Neverwinter Nights story takes place in the northern Sword Coast region in WotC's Forgotten Realms, running from Neverwinter in the south, to Luskan in the north. However, the areas we can create using our tilesets have no real bounds. They will include everything necessary to create two distinct cities, a great variety of forest and grassland terrain, numerous types of dungeons, two intricate castle styles, rural hamlets, and vast subterranean caverns.'

This game was FANTASTIC. It was a superb recreation of Faerun, and, guess who made it, Bioware. It had great graphics, still I think they are the best. The gameplay was superb, with great twists. Some places of interest that you visit are, Neverwinter city, Luskan and the Hosttower, Beorunnas well, and well, you can make the rest. The two expansions are great, even though I dont have them. Hordes of the Underdark is going to be great, Cant wait till xmas. I just wanna let everyone know that IM a huge FR's fan and I have Almost every FR game, so if you are, dont let this one slip by. !!!!!:-)
