Game Play: While they stick with the old tried-and-true turn-based system that has been common to most of their past offerings, the strategic elements and choices are improved, as well as the leveling up system. Sounds: Not much has changed, many of the sounds I've heard before in the Avernum series are merely repeated here. Graphics have always been nudged up on their Avernum series each time one came out, but with Avadon, this is a major leap for them, and so the graphics are quite an improvement ![]() Spiderweb Software has always been known for its classic turn-based gameplay, while minimizing the game's graphics (you'll never confuse this game with, say, the Witcher 2.), making it accessible to computers that can be at least 5-6+ years old with older graphics cards. So here's my take on what I've experienced so far: I pretty much have the gist of the game, and while there's a lot of the usual (meaning good.) Spiderweb Software core game mechanics, I've been frankly a little disappointed in the overall game set-up. ![]() I immediately purchased it and have been playing it now for a couple of weeks. So anyway, after hearing that the Avernum series was more or less completed, I was really looking forward to when their most recent new series offering, Avadon/The Black Fortress finally came out. By roadtoady | Review Date: JI've been a major fan of Spiderweb Software games for well over a decade, having played all of their legendary Avernum series (I've reviewed the last two of them here in GameSpot).
