Forgotten realms: Demon Stone Overview
Developed by Stormfront Studios and written by R.A. Salvatore, Forgotten Realms: Demon Stone sounds like an RPG-lovers dream! While there have been plenty of D&D-based video games in the past, Demon Stone is a little different, placing you in command of a party of three heroes on an adventure to rid the land of two evil warlords. Is different good? Well, that’s up to the gamer. However, Demon Stone ends up playing out more like EA’s The Two Towers than it does other D&D games.

Fallout: Brotherhood of Steel takes place on a post-apocalyptic earth, where civilization has shattered, and raiders and mutants rule the wastelands. You are a member of the Brotherhood of Steel, the unofficial peacekeeping force of the wasteland, and it’s your job to fight back and restore some level of peace before all is lost.

Dual Hearts Overview
Developed by the same studio behind the darker themed Alundra, Dual Hearts is another action-RPG but with a brighter theme. Dual Hearts involves exploring dreams, solving puzzles, and hacking away at enemies with an assortment of weapons. The combat system in the game is one of its most innovative features, there are many different weapons to acquire and an odd mythical partner called a Baku to fight alongside. The graphics in Dual Hearts aren’t steller, but the bright colors and varied stages make up for that. The mix of gameplay elements and lower challenge may frustrate Alundra fans, but they make Dual Hearts accessible to a wider audience.
