Based on the 'Old World' of Warhammer Fantasy and historical games like HeroQuest, Talisman and Warhammer Quest, the player controls a band of four heroes to travel trough the game world, visiting places, encountering NPC's and performing quests to gain experience and wealth. They do that by entering labyrinths, fighting monsters, avoiding traps and finding treasures.
