About Hard to be a God
Hard to be a God is a role-playing game with adventure and espionage elements. You play a graduate of a medieval secret-service school, trained in combat and diplomacy. Strong, sly and intelligent, he is the most powerful person in Arkanar, but his familiar world still holds surprises.
Story and world
A highly developed Earth race governs a series of unexpected events in Arkanar. The hero begins a new mission in cooperation with Earth forces and gains access to advanced technologies. In his underdeveloped home world, he nearly becomes a god. The story is by Russian science-fiction writers Arkady and Boris Strugatsky.
The game combines medieval and alternative-future interfaces within its universe, and uses science-fiction technology instead of a traditional magic system. Its storyline is non-linear, and the world is interactive.
Combat and development
Combat takes place in real time, with an active-pause option and combos and special attacks such as stunning and disarming. The game also has an original character development system.
You can manage the hero’s party of mercenaries and volunteers in different ways. Free movement through locations and a global map allow for random encounters. Environments vary in style and landscape, and their terrain affects movement speed.
