Shroud of the Avatar hits the pledge mark

Published March 19, 2013 | By Don Pedro

I’m extremely excited over this, Shroud of the Avatar has reached their million dollar goal so the development cycle is going to start. I can’t wait to see the Alpha builds! Yes, I put in my couple of coins to make the magic happen. My name will appear somewhere in the game. 🙂

The more I read about this game the more impressive it sounds. This will be a ground breaking effort and will offer elements we’ve never seen before. Not only is this an adventure game, it’s a Sim, it’s Monopoly, it’s Minecraft. The small game video looks fantastic and it’s nothing more than a proof of concept.

Ultima set the standard for the genre and I think Shroud of the Avatar will set a new standard. It’ll be a game we can play and immerse ourselves in rather than just grinding through the levels hoping to find some trinket piece of armor or weaponry to gain a couple of stat points.

Lord British is Back!!!
