THE ELDER SCROLLS ADVENTURES: REDGUARD 

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Like all crowd-pleasing action-adventure stories, REDGUARD is a refreshing combination of high adventure and low humor, heroic courage and subtle wit, daring action and fairy-tale charm.  REDGUARD'S brisk, original blend of stirring action-adventure in a magic-rich, immersive fantasy setting is a refreshing tonic in a market saturated with repetitive knockoffs and tired, predictable formulaic games.

Featuring dozens of fully animated real time 3D characters, REDGUARD lets you interact with everyone you meet on the populated island of Stros M'Kai.  Using the 3rd person perspective, REDGUARD'S camera system allows for dynamic panning of the action.  Imagine you're in a conversation with a local pirate in a busy market square. Your words come to blows and you both draw swords. You are faster on the draw and able to disarm him. In one smooth motion the camera swings around, showing you with your sword at his neck as he concedes victory.  The advanced camera system allows for real-time 3D cinematics with no break in the gameplay.

You play Cyrus, a Redguard mercenary, who returns to the province of his birth, in search of his lost sister. You'll encounter swashbuckling pirates, shady political figures and all sorts of colorful people and creatures around every turn. You experience the game areas as you discover them, and the story evolves at the pace of your play. Your adventures will have you escaping from death defying traps, jumping across dizzying chasms, discovering Dwarven ruins, swinging across ropes, and best of all...sword fighting!
Action, adventure and storytelling are all combined in the genre breaking game that is REDGUARD.
