No spoiling here, but the plot of this captivating game is Epic from a capital letter, involving powerful gods and goddesses, time travel and, of course, saving the world. The story begins and develops in a vast World of Arvale composed of eight different continents each with its peculiar climate, geographical conditions and settlements. The amazingly beautiful and very detailed world is a true pearl of this Pocket PC game – try not to forget about the actual quest when marveling at the picturesque views!
But the World of Arvale is definitely more than just a beautiful decor. It is a living world with its own stories and riddles. The man you accidentally meet in a village may turn out to be an outcast lord from another continent, and what looks like an ordinary stick may actually be a mage staff lost ages ago and now recovered by you. Interact with more than 500 NPCs and hundreds of objects to get to know the story of this enthralling world. Cut scenes unveiling some parts of the plot will help you find your bearings and decide on what to do next.
The game is tightly packed with action: apart from the main line, there are lots of side quests and additional puzzles. Travel through space and time, engage in various games of destiny and feel the true freedom of an adventure. Your fate depends on the path you choose, and so does the ending of the game. Fighting monsters and villains, rescuing princesses and collecting ancient artifacts – the whole epic hero pack of activities in one game on your PDA!
All the diamonds and pearls of the plot and gameplay are artfully set into a mount of wonderful visual and sound effects. Hear the whistle of the wind in the rich green leaves and enjoy the ambience of the game environment with more than 125 sound effects and a total of 27 soundtracks. The vivid colours of the game and amazing visual effects will make you want to play again and again – luckily, there are three levels of difficulty to choose from.
Compatible with all current Pocket PCs, this version requires a Windows Mobile 2003 or newer device. Thousands of users have already tried the game; join them by downloading a trial version to lift the veil of mystery covering the story and come back for the full version.
An immense world that has its own spirit awaits a hero that will take the challenge and face the evil in the greatest battle of all. This game is definitely worth the 40 hours (or even more) you’ll spend glued to your Pocket PC as well as the money it costs. Arvale II – Ocean of Time 4.0 is truly an ocean of joyful and interesting time.
