Overview
The re released version invites you to return to the Forgotten Realms with new and enhanced features offering over a hundred hours of adventures and the tools to create your own. The series features three main stories:
- Neverwinter Nights Campaign: You find yourself at the centre of intrigue, betrayal, and dark magic in Neverwinter Nights. Journey through dangerous cities, monster-filled dungeons, and deep into uncharted wilderness in search of the cure for a cursed plague ravaging the city of Neverwinter.
- Shadows of Undrentide Expansion: Another adventure begins in Shadows of Undrentide! Charged by your master to recover four ancient artifacts, travel from the Silver Marches to unravel mysteries of a long-dead magical civilization.
- Hordes of the Underdark Expansion: Continue the adventure started in Shadows of Undrentide and journey into the ever-more bizarre and hostile depths of Undermountain to challenge a gathering evil.
It's a game that was developed and enhanced over many years. While visually the game is basic it has that spark of recreating the feel of a Tolkien adventure. It has something to offer a wide range of players, both experienced and newcomers. Those that want to can use the wider tools, DM client, and multiplayer options to craft an experience of their own.
