Dungeons & Dragons has had a profound impact on video games, especially RPGs, since the very beginning. There have been plenty of games that take directly from the D&D source material. Such is the case with Dungeons & Dragons: Dark Alliance. Developed by Tuque Games and published by D&D-owner Wizards of the Coast, Dungeons & Dragons: Dark Alliance is an excellent D&D experience, despite some technical issues.
Dark Alliance is set in the frigid lands of Icewind Dale, within the Forgotten Realms. The tundra is being invaded by armies of evil forces, and a band of heroes must rise in order to thwart them. The story follows Drizzt Do’Urden and his three allies - Cattie-brie, Bruenor, and Wulfgar as they fight against the dark forces.
Players have the option of taking on the role of any of the four lead characters. Each of which has their own unique race and class. Just as in classic Dungeons & Dragons, this determines how characters perform, informing their advantages and disadvantages. Although the game only gives you four characters to pick from, there’s still a solid level of variety in options in regard to playstyle.
Though we do get some background information on the main characters and their relationships with each other, I wish they got more focus in the story. One of the most magical things about D&D is how players get invested in characters, but I struggled to find a reason to care about any of the characters in Dark Alliance, outside of the fact that I was playing as them.
