Stonekeep is one of the first games to apply a first-person shooter interface to the realm of fantasy role-playing, as the gamer takes the role of a classic medieval hero who must use both sword and sorcery to make his way through winding catacombs full of animated skeletons and terrible monsters. The first-person perspective helps to allow the player to assume the role of the lead character, as a few well-placed mouse-clicks wield the hero's mighty sword to dispatch evil ghouls and goblins that seem to be standing right in front of him.
While the dungeons are well stocked with enemies, puzzle solving is a significant aspect of gameplay as well, as the hero may need to disarm traps or use found items to escape from one area to the next.
The game comes with a page novella that establishes the hero character and his place in the storyline. You are Drake, an adventurer trying to stop the evil Khull-Khumm, and to raise Stonekeep back to it's former glory! One of the best "cinematic" RPGs ever made, Stonekeep is an excellent introductory-level single-player first-person RPG that boasts very high production value, but unfortunately suffered in the market due to some game-crashing bugs that should have never made it past beta testing.
Once patched, though, Stonekeep shines through with excellent story, immersive gameplay, one of the best user interfaces ever seen in RPGs, and a gentle learning curve that makes the game perfect for newcomers to the genre who find statistics-based RPGs e.

An original title over three years in the making, Stonekeep is a powerful and mesmerizing epic adventure redefining the traditional dungeon experience.
Use the arrow keys to move around, use the mouse to pick up, equip, and fight. Right and left mouse clicks do different things, so you must practice and remember which hand holds the weapon when you get into a fight. The monsters are relatively stupid-- my favourite fighting technique is to stand at a door and throw things at the monsters inside, since they can't come out of their room to get you. This means you are safe until you run out of things to throw. The game of course makes up for the monsters' low intelligence by throwing hordes of them at you at a time.
This means you will die quite often in lower levels are Drake is still weak, but the game is not overly frustrating-- it just takes a bit of patience and perseverance to improve your character stats which are mostly hidden from the player due to this being a 'light' RPG. Aside from hacking monsters, you will come across helpful NPCs who can sometimes join you for a while. You cannot control these NPCs' behaviour, so it is a lot of fun to watch their unique attacks and constant quips.
Most puzzles are standard dungeon-crawl fare, e. Nothing special here, although a few sub-quests are quite interesting. What makes Stonekeep a great game as opposed to merely a good one is the incredibly immersive atmosphere that makes you feel as if you are truly wandering in the halls of Stonekeep. Although most monsters look a little pixellated and two-dimensional similar to cardboard cutouts in Betrayal at Krondor , the full-screen, first-person perspective and excellent background graphics maintains a suspension of disbelief.
Additionally, all cut-scenes occur right inside the gameworld, making the immersion even more powerful. The immersive three-dimensional environment associated with this game will add an extra sense of realism to the overall experience. Fans of classic games will be pleased to learn that Stonekeep has not been modified since its release in This retro appeal is certainly not to be overlooked.
However, the challenges are just as formidable as modern systems and most consider this game to be one of the best in the industry. Have you tried Stonekeep? Be the first to leave your opinion! Classic and highly detailed role-playing game for personal computers.
