Secret of the Silver Blades

Secret of the Silver Blades is a 1990 computer role-playing game from the Forgotten Realms series, continuing the tradition of party-based adventures built around the Advanced Dungeons & Dragons rules. Players create or import a group of adventurers and explore a fantasy world filled with monsters, treasures, towns, quests, and dangerous dungeons. Combat is turn-based and tactical, making positioning and character abilities important during battles. The game offers a substantial adventure with plenty of exploration and opportunities to develop the party. Fans of classic RPGs will find familiar classes, spells, equipment, and dungeon encounters, along with the wonderfully old-school assumption that reading manuals is part of the adventure. Secret of the Silver Blades is a satisfying journey for anyone who enjoys methodical fantasy role-playing. Just remember: when the corridor contains a suspicious number of treasure chests, there is probably a reason.
