Infogrames Enchants Stores This Week with Silver
The highly anticipated adventure/RPG game brings wizardry and magic to most major retail stores.
SAN JOSE, CA., June 28, 2000 - Grab your sword, because the village women are missing and David needs your help! Silver, Infogrames' anticipated adventure/RPG title for the Dreamcast begins shipping to most major retail stores this week. Brandish your sword and shield and get ready for an exciting adventure through the dense, dark, misty forests in the realm of Silver.
Silver, a corrupt and sinister sorcerer, rules the land of Jarrah with an iron fist. He and his henchmen have abducted the village women as part of a pact with the almighty god, Apocalypse. The player, as David, a promising young knight whose wife languishes among the captured, is the only hope for stopping Silver and his minions.
To complete his quest, David must obtain and master eight magical orbs that will allow him to summon the forces of fire, ice, life, lightning, earth, acid, time, and light. These orbs will grant him the power to battle Silver's dark sorcery.
"Silver offers gamers a stunning adventure filled with beautifully rendered interactive worlds and fascinating foes and allies," said David Riley, director of marketing for Infogrames' San Jose label. "The game's intuitive interface and design is a perfect fit for the advanced technology of the Dreamcast system."
Players never experience the same situation twice as they roam freely around Jarrah in a non-linear pattern. They explore a variety of areas that include the tranquil island of Haven, the blasted ice plains of Winter and the underground rivers of blood at Metalon. As the player wanders throughout the mystical land, he encounters more than 50 unique, fascinating characters, some of which may be recruited as allies to assist in his quest against the evil sorcerer. Characters range from harmless imps to frightening bosses that include an evil ice dragon and a giant rat god. With an advanced artificial intelligence system in place, these enemies react intuitively and unpredictably to changing conditions.
Developed by Spiral House, Silver is available at an estimated retail price of $39.99 and can be found at most major retail outlets.
