Frayed Knights: The Skull of S?makh-Daon is a 3D indie computer RPG for Windows (and, soon, Mac) featuring turn-based combat, old-school sensibilities, and a story of high adventure and comedy. Who says RPGs have to be so serious? In a world of jaded heroes and veteran adventurers, you play a team of misfits: Arianna, a dainty warrior with an attitude problem; Dirk, an adrenaline-junky rogue who doesn?t seem to understand the word ?subtle;? Benjamin, a nature-priest and an ill-suited newcomer to the adventuring lifestyle, and Chloe, a ditsy sorceress with a love of cute, fuzzy animals and setting her enemies on fire.
Features:
* 30+ hours of gameplay.
* Challenging, turn-based combat in a game that plays at your pace.
* A unique ?Drama Star? system that rewards the player for playing through tough situations instead of reloading and replaying.

* Over a hundred base spells, most with several upgraded variants.
* An innovative trap-disarming / lockpicking system using character skills and items to disable a device one component at a time.
* Over 80 feats to customize your party as they progress through the game.
* A detailed, ?stats-heavy? rules system? which you are free to ignore if you choose.
* Nearly 200 different items to be used and abused by your characters.
* A ?Quarterstaff of Nad-Whacking.?
* Sixteen ?dungeons? (interior adventuring areas), five outdoor areas, one village, an alternate dimension, and some green dude?s one-room hovel.
