The Temple of Torment

The Temple of Torment is a retro-style role-playing game inspired by classic computer RPGs, placing players in a dangerous fantasy world filled with monsters, quests, exploration and character development. Players create and develop a character, explore towns and wilderness areas, acquire equipment and engage in turn-based combat against a variety of enemies. The game emphasizes exploration and traditional RPG progression, rewarding players who take time to investigate locations and improve their abilities. Its old-school presentation deliberately recalls an era when computer role-playing games were more interested in numbers, dungeons and character sheets than cinematic spectacle. The Temple of Torment is therefore a good choice for fans of classic RPG design who do not mind reading a lot of text and managing statistics. After all, sometimes the most frightening monster in a dungeon is an unexplained modifier.
