Wyvern is an Indie, old-school graphical MMO-RPG, inspired by games like Gauntlet, Nethack, and Ultima IV. Wyvern is a huge and diverse world: the game has been around 20+ years and is in continuous development. We are excited to bring the game to Steam, with new features and content.
Gameplay
The game features a top-down, tiled-based 2D view, with real-time combat and adventuring.
An important part of the gameplay is the text output area, on the right. The game tells you in text what's happening, and you can also see chat messages and other information there. The game window also includes views of your spells, your inventory, your stats, custom views for other situations.
Wyvern is a command-oriented game: There are hundreds of commands you can type: social commands and emotes, appraising and crafting, inventory management and more. You can bind commands to hotkeys using your entire keyboard. You can even create custom commands using aliases and macros to speed up your gameplay. The command system gives Wyvern unprecedented depth, power, and flexibility.
Features
Some of Wyvern's rich, exciting features include:
17 unique player races, from humans and elves, to fighting cats, giants, vampires and more
Over 50 quests, many of them quite elaborate, with their own unique and powerful rewards
A Builder Mode (level editor) that anyone can use to create their own areas
A Guild system that allows you to further specialize and fine-tune your character's abilities
Over 100 unique spells that can be learned, or used from wands, rods and magic items
Hundreds of playable areas, from cities and towns, to crypts, dungeons, ruins, underwater realms, and much more
Over 500 monsters that can wield weapons, cast spells, fire missiles, use wands, etc. And your summoned creatures can do all that too!
A popular Random Dungeon system that provides endless levels of monsters and loot
Player groups, support roles, and adventuring facilities
Raid bosses, Live Quests, and other endgame events
Custom images: At 25th level, you can upload your own avatars to fully personalize your character
A well-established and friendly community of helpful old-timer players
It's hard to do justice to the size and scope of Wyvern until you've played it yourself.
