About This Game
Knights of the Chalice 2 is a 2D RPG with turn-based combat for
Windows and macOS. The game uses the OGL 3.5, the set of rules at
the root of Dungeons & Dragons 3.5, a role-playing game from Wizards
of the Coast.
Create a party of up to six adventurers and explore the village of
Finchbury and the dangerous sewer complex that lurks beneath the
town. You will be able to recruit eight new companions during the
course of the adventure.
The characters will soon find themselves caught up in deadly
conflict with a powerful group of evil worshippers, the Circle of
the Black Rose. Your epic struggle for survival and justice will
culminate in the retaking of Gleegold Keep from the forces of evil.
• Turn-based, party-based tactical combat similar to that found
in the RPG Dark Sun Shattered Lands made by SSI and in Troika's
Temple of Elemental Evil.
• Advanced emergent Artificial Intelligence. Enemies act as a
group and support each other. They can use special actions like
Grapple, Trip, Disarm, Sunder, Feint, Bull Rush, Ready Versus Spell
or Swallow Whole and other tactics like taking a Five-Foot step
before casting Maximised Fireball. They might use a Wind spell to
dissipate the player's Acid Fog.
• More than 700 Spells and Psionic Powers. The game also features
22 Classes, 10 Races, 36 Subraces, about 500 Feats, 41 Cleric
Domains, 71 Weapon enchantments and 51 Armour and Shield
enchantments. See the list of Wizard spells and the KotC 2 database
webpage for details.
• Multiple-choice dialogue options offering real choices and real
in-game consequences to the player. Use your party's unique skills
and consider your own preferences and playing style in order to
resolve situations in the most suitable manner. Accept or decline
various optional quests and join different factions with
conflicting interests. Create the perfect combat-focused party, or
have fun creating a party of eccentric misfits.
• Enjoy a variety of engrossing puzzles and riddles. Use your
intuition and logical thinking to decrypt mysterious coded
messages. The game's cryptography interface, inspired by Broken
Sword Shadow of the Templars, makes decoding a captivating
activity. Do not worry about the difficulty of puzzles and riddles,
though, as the game frequently provides Hints designed to help you
resolve this type of challenge.
• Play through the extensive Tutorial Adventure to learn the ins
and outs of the game's interface easily. The tutorial is a unique
adventure. It features multiple endings and offers a number of
important choices. Create your main character and start exploring
the ruins of the ancient citadel of King Valdrek. Your adventure
will bring you new friends, but you may also get more than what you
bargained for.
• Experience brand new tactical challenges. Get ready for pitched
battles with frequent enemy reinforcements. Some monsters will
attack the party once it is divided into two subgroups. Your
characters may have to fight underwater, brave the heat of a
volcano, or endure the toxic fumes of a gigantic poison trap. Some
particularly devious areas, called Death Snares, will tax the
party's fighting ability and survival skill to its extreme limit.
• KotC 2 Augury of Chaos allows you to create your level-1
characters and take them all the way to level 21 or so. There is no
limit on character level. You can create up to six characters from
scratch. In addition, you may recruit eight permanent companions
during the course of the adventure, increasing your total number of
party members to eight or nine by the end of the game. Temporary
companions and allies will also be assisting your party from time
to time.
• User-friendly interface. Launch a charge, full-attack or
coup-de-grace with a single click - the computer will automatically
look for the best option available. Out of combat, move the party
with a single click or by keeping the mouse button pushed. See the
KotC 1 How to Play webpage for more information.
• Omnipresent help files and clear in-game feedback on the
results of each dice roll, saving throw, attack roll, modifiers and
so on. A similar feature exists in Temple of Elemental Evil.
• With the right materials and sufficient gold and experience
points, craft your own weapons and armour and apply enchantments
like Vorpal, Life Stealing, Wounding, Swift, Dispelling or Flaming
Burst. See the complete list of enchantments for details.
• Use the powerful integrated toolset to create new modules and
campaigns easily. Easily swap monster tokens and sprites or create
new ones. Create new monsters, new dialogues and new maps easily.
The best modules may also generate an income stream for you thanks
to the 5-5-5 User Module Offer.
• Enjoy fast Saved-Game loading and saving and numerous game
options designed to accelerate gameplay. Enjoy various convenience
features, such as the Saved-Game preview image display, automatic
potion and scroll distribution to the party members, Tab key press
to highlight objects that may be interacted with, Inventory Screen
weapon-comparison tooltip, and the highlighting of spell scrolls
that may be learned by a character.
• Thanks to its successful Kickstarter campaign, KotC 2 will
receive many further improvements in the future, including new
creature sprites, new feats, new items, a new iconised
combat-actions menu, and more. New adventure modules will also be
created.
• Enjoy collecting 100 GOG Galaxy achievements designed to
challenge the best tacticians. Easily increase the difficulty level
to create a drastically different experience where each and every
one of your decisions both in combat and out of combat could mean
the difference between life and death. Or simply download an
extensive user module, such as Dorateen's Hearkenwold, for an
awesome change of pace. Get ready for hundreds of hours of
immersive and delightful playtime!
