The Adventurers brings some of that old-school D&D turn-based gaming to a PC near you and sprinkles it with enough retro dust to get us excited

So you have looked at the above screenshot and instantly thought, ‘That’s not for me’, well hold your adventuring horses Sonny Jim, and give this forthcoming indie D&D ‘em-up a bit more of a chance.

Slated for a release in Q4, this turn-based Dungeons and Dragon’s Dragons-inspired romp across an ever-changing fantasy world could well deserve your attention.

The first thing to notice is how it is reminiscent of old-school RPGs that were all the flavor in the early 90s but with modern systems included. In a way, it also reminds us a little of the Steam version of Dwarf Fortress and that is not a bad thing by any means.

In The Adventurers (which is also a great name by the way) you take control of a party of adventurers (but then, you should have guessed that) and take contracts from locals that you find while, er, adventuring, to enhance your coffers and your reputation.

While not having any kind of official D&D tag it is clear the devs have spent many an hour hunched over a tabletop version of the game and have built-in character progression, questing, and exploration that offers what looks like will be a pretty unique gaming experience.

It is the concentration on the world-building aspect of this single-player RPG that is most reminiscent of D&D and indeed Dwarf Fortress as it looks as though the world will shape itself around your exploits and reputation as you play.

The devs are Eternal Vigilance Entertainment and there is not much info circulating about them and this clearly a labor of love for them, but what we have seen has been enough to get us very interested indeed.

You can check out the announcement trailer above and wishlist the game on Steam to show your support for the project and keep informed of development news.
