Released on December 30th, 2005...
Nazghul 0.5

Nazghul is a computer role-playing game (CRPG) engine. Here's what it looks like when played. Obviously, the emphasis is not on graphics or first-person squad-based stealth action. If you like roguelikes or the top-down, 2d, turn-based CRPG's that disappeared in the early 90's then this is for you.




Haxima 1.0

Haxima is the first full-featured game built with the nazghul engine. It comes packaged with nazghul-0.5.0.

Haxima includes:

• A complete, playable game
• U5-like game play
• Multiple characters in the player party
• Clone of U5 magic system, with some extras
• A sizable wilderness
• Several towns
• Several dungeons
• A main quest
• Several side quests
• Talking NPC's
• Scripted game world
• Open-source engine code

I just played the tutorial. It's pretty good, but I don't like having to remember spells and reagent mixings, that's what a spell book is for. I don't mind the mixing, but having some sort of notes (like a spell book) to jot down the spell details as you learn new ones would have been good.

Bliss! This game made me feel exploring again. The text-speach system creates a truly dynamic way of storytelling.

For those who own Ultima V's "The Book of Lore" paper spellbook this game is a blast from the past! With my favourite paper spellbook in hand, lets see of all those homebrewed spells work in this game as well!

Oh.. and dont forget to keep a journal of your adventures... perferably on sun erroded paper as well
