Xyphus

Xyphus is a 2D fantasy RPG where the player can develop up to four characters with attributes such as hit points, endurance, strength etc. The available races are humans, dwarves and elves, with a mix of melee fighting and the use of magic for the professions. Slaying monsters is rewarded with experience and gold, used to upgrade and acquire new items. The game is divided into six scenarios to defeat the evil demon lord Xyphus and free the lands of Arroya. The characters can be moved separately or as a group in a top-down environment built up out of hexagons. You can read about my experience with the game HERE
