Legendary Tales Engine and Visual Editor is a user-friendly text-based gaming tool that enables users to create and play independent adventure modules situated in medieval, swords and sorcery fantasy environments.
Legendary Tales is an impressive software package consisting of two parts: the Legendary Tales Engine and the Legendary Tales Editor. With the Editor, users can create text-based RPG games that can then be played using the Engine's user-friendly graphical user interface (GUI).
Unlike traditional RPGs, the Engine does not rely on a command line. Instead, players interact with the adventure's world and characters through the GUI, with all of the game's action and story progression being presented as text. Additionally, the Engine lets users incorporate pictures and maps for a more immersive experience.
Players can control up to six PC characters, each of which can be designated with a race and class, just like any other RPG. The exciting part is that the adventure's creator defines the races, allowing for unique and custom stories that can take place in any medieval, sword and sorcery fantasy setting. In addition to real-time combat and dual weapon wielding, the GUI inventory feature makes it easy to equip PCs quickly.
The Editor is a powerful visual tool that lets users create complex adventures without requiring any programming knowledge. With a point-and-click interface, users can create locations, monsters, items, and more, with ease. But the Editor's real strength is its scripting support, which allows for the dynamic manipulation of the game. Users can use either VBScript or JScript to add unique items, weapons, and spells to their adventures. The scripting language allows authors to load maps and images, modify the player's journal, design dialog with NPCs, and much more.
Once the adventure is complete, the Editor automatically creates a compressed file containing all the necessary data for distribution. Additionally, authors can encrypt their text, images, scripts, and data files to prevent cheating by players.
Overall, Legendary Tales offers an exceptional software experience for those interested in creating and playing custom RPG adventures. With its intuitive GUI, support for maps and images, and powerful scripting tools, Legendary Tales provides all of the features necessary for limitless creative expression.
