---Wikipedia Description---

The game is set on the world of VARN (Vehicular Astropod Research Nacelle) which features expansive outdoor terrain, castles, caves, underground cities and an Astral Plane.

The game centers around six adventurers who are trying to discover the secret of the Inner Sanctum: a kind of "holy grail" quest. While trying to discover the Inner Sanctum, the heroes discover information about Corak's hunt for the missing villain Sheltem. They end up unmasking Sheltem, who had been masquerading as the King, and defeating his evil machinations. At the end of the game they go through the "Gates to Another World" and travel to CRON, not knowing that Sheltem has also escaped to that world.

Although VARN is populated mostly by medieval fantasy tropes such as knights in armor, mythical monsters and magicians, a number of science fiction elements enter the setting. As an example, the Sheltem plot is first introduced when the adventurers visit the site of a crashed space ship and are told by aliens that their prisoner is at large in the world.

I know the recording quality is shoddy. I'm just now learning the ropes of desktop recording with CAMStudio.
