Shadows of Adam came out in 2021 and was published by Something Classic Games, yes, the same folks who sent me Quartet last year. Now they never sent me Shadows of Adam; in fact, I didn’t even realize it was the same people until someone mentioned it while I was playing Quartet. I recently wanted to play an old school RPG and figured, since I will hopefully be playing Quartet again on PS5 when that hits, I would replay Shadows of Adam since it has been a few years.
This was always a fantasic turn based game. The village of Adam was tucked away from most of the world, deep in the misty woods, protected from all the bad that had happened. The perfect place to raise a family and just exist. 10 years have passed since the Wraith war, and Adam has pretty much been at peace. Orazio, however, had vanished, and that peace is suddenly gone. Orazio, the hero, is probably the only person who could save them. So his son and adopted daughter decide it is time for Orazio to explain a few things and make it their mission to trace his steps, solve his dark secret, and save him and the world.
What follows is a combination of humor and action on a 16-bit level we rarely get anymore. I don’t know how Something Classic does it, but they always manage to publish some amazing old-school RPGs. Their updates for their games always add things to keep you playing, from New Game+, which is more than just playing again, to new items and more. This was one of their first games I fell in love with, even before I knew who they were. Best wishes, and may the gaming gods bring you glory.
