Shaping HallGeneforge is our newest fantasy role-playing game with a science fiction twist. In
Geneforge, you are free to choose what your overall goal is, and you can seek after it with your
own horde of deadly, mutant monsters.
You are a Shaper, a member of the most powerful and secretive of the magical guilds. You have
the power to create life and mold it to serve your own needs. For millennia, your world feared
and respected the Shapers above all others. Their creations could go everywhere, do anything,
all according to the wishes of the Shapers and no others.
If you need a servant, you simply create it, and it will gladly die for you.
But now the secrets of your people are at risk. Someone dares to try to steal the power of the
Shapers and take it for his own. He has committed the ultimate crime: he has captured you, and
he will do anything to get you to surrender your secrets.

A Fantasy Role-Playing Adventure
Specter TrialSpiderweb Software, makers of the award-winning Avernum and Geneforge series,
happily announces the release of Avernum 4, the long-awaited, all-new continuation to the Avernum
series. This epic fantasy-roleplaying adventure returns you to the enormous underworld nation of
Avernum, whose shadowy lands are once again facing horrible peril.
Avernum is a nation underground. Its pale people live in endless miles of tunnels, pits, and gigantic
caverns. Some come to Avernum to work the mines. Others come to hunt monsters for their treasure.
And some risk life in the underworld because it is the only place where a person can be free from the
total rule of the Empire.
But life in Avernum just became a lot more dangerous. All at once, everything has gone wrong. The
savages and dark creatures of the lower tunnels, once beaten into submission, have returned. Gigantic
beasts, shielded by powerful magic, have taken up residence in the cities, wandering and killing at random.
And normally peaceful citizens have been afflicted by a strange, overwhelming paranoia, making even
regular townsfolk unpredictable and dangerous.
Giant FightNobody knows why these disasters have occurred. But you, through good luck (or bad), have
stumbled upon a clue. And thus, you become involved in a shadowy war and a deadly struggle, which will
take you through strange lands, bandit cities, and the darkest depths of the underworld. Your mission:
discover who has attacked your homeland, and stop them. Before everything falls apart.
Avernum 4 is an enormous fantasy role-playing adventure. Wander a gigantic world, full of multitudes
of characters, hundreds of side quests, and traps, tricks, and treasure in every corner. Experience the
life of an adventurer: the fame, the wealth, the hapless townsfolk begging you for help at every turn!
This epic tale is guaranteed to give you weeks of entertainment, with an impossibly huge world that
dares you to uncover all of its secrets.
