Chronicles of Arax - The Dark Citadel
Publisher: Crystal Star Games
by Stanton D. [Verified Purchaser]
Date Added: 03/20/2011 23:56:03

This is a pretty fun adventure, it is composed of two different twenty part quest and both are pretty fun in how they are put together, I liked the first part a little better as it was more of an overland quest than anything. Neither seems to have a "lost all equipment" or "monster vastly superior to you sitting around to kill you" for you to land on either.

My only issue is that there wasn't any new artifacts to roll for on the adventure, what this means is that I kept rolling on items I had already received from the first adventure and when I got an encounter telling me to roll again I wasn't too excited about it.

Chronicles of Arax - Battle Wizard

The Battle Wizard seems to be a pretty solid class, like most casters it starts out pretty weak but eventually makes up for it with a bunch of spells with each level advancement.

The mix of spells available are pretty solid and provide some pretty solid buffs or attacks to help you in each encounter.

If you have any intention of playing more adventures as they are released you will need this product. It has numerous items that can be of use to you, not to mention the fact that it has rules on missile weapons which I can foresee making a lot of encounters that much more survivable.

Chronicles of Arax - Knight of the Steel Fist

The Knight is a tank through and through. His abilities are geared around taking the hit, laughing, and smashing down any opponent in his way. A neat limitation (probably to prevent being overpowered) is that they have a limit on magical items they can use or risk suffering penalties.

Chronicles of Arax - Solo Adventure Game

Chronicles of Arax is a very solid game and delivers exactly what was promised, a way to play a quick game by yourself for when you don't have the ability to bring together a group of people.

Even though it is mechanically different, the game feels very much like a choose your own adventure book where you are reading a narrative and deciding the path for the character. This is a little more left to chance as dice rolls determine your direction of travel (I sad hi to an unfriendly dragon :( ) but the premise is still there.

A great time and I look forward to playing with the other modules.
