Description

Arcadia is an open-ended computer moderated fantasy game based on a modified Atlantis 5.0 code. Players may attempt to carve out huge empires, become master magicians, intrepid explorers, rich traders or any other career that comes to mind.

The Arcadia game engine has made a big evolutionary and experimental process. With the new incorporated features, game balance and feel has been significantly improved. Thus, we offer some really state of the art super dupa features other Atlantis derivatives lack: hero system, fresh magic system, hexside terrain ( beaches, rocks, harbours etc ), new combat system, new sea movement and ship types, some spiffy new orders for empire managment and, of course, wild and nasty dragons!

Our games are mostly semi-closed ended, meaning that after finding a way through a labyrinth, completing a quest or just slasing Your way through enemy lines You may be able to fullfill the victory conditions, thus bringing the game to an end. The actual player number depends on the given scenario. Usually, no new players can join after game start.
