Dwarfs to the rescue

 The dwarves game review

 

The dwarves. Impossible not to love them. Yet, although this race is one of those on which the fantasy genre has based its fortunes, there are not so many works in which a short and bearded character with his ax appears as the protagonist. 

 

Despite being able to count on a reputation as fearsome warriors, often the dwarves happen to be entrusted with the task of lightening the tone of the narrative, through gags of various kinds: to have an example,just think of the way in which Gimli was represented in the trilogy film of The Lord of the Rings.

 

To awaken the dwarven pride, as hard as the anvils found in the heart of the Forgiardente, King Art Games, the development team of the adventure series The Book of Unwritten Tales, thought about it.

 

After a Passing on $ 310,000 Kickstarter , at the end of 2016 finally released The Dwarves, a title that sees as a protagonist a dwarf. Let’s find out together, in our review.

Sharpen the ax and order your beard: you leave for the dwarven adventure of The Dwarves!

Dwarfs to the rescue

The book, also translated into Italian with the name Le Cinque Stirpi, actually gives way to a saga composed of four other books, the last of which was published by us in 2016. After the necessary introduction to the literary we go to The Dwarves videogame, which as we said takes up the story told in the first chapter to fall into the role of Tungdil Manodoro. While living in a world where dwarves are divided among five lineages (hence the name of the book), Tungdil has never known anyone of his race.

 

From an early age he was in fact raised between the forge and the books by Lot-Ionan, a powerful magician who with his power helps to defend the region of the Hidden Lands from the invasion of the inevitable enemy forces of evil nature.

 

The opportunity to leave for adventure comes to Tungdil when Lot-Ionan instructs him to make a delivery to his fellow magician: a seemingly easy task, which soon will prove to be much more complicated than expected, leading the protagonist around Girdlegard. With the army of orcs now approaching, the forces of the dwarves will be essential to prevent a ruinous invasion.

 

Without revealing more on the plot, we can say that this aspect was one of those that we most liked within The Dwarves. While relying on some fantasy canons that have become classic, the story is able to be followed throughout its entire duration: bringing the protagonist around Girdlegard. With the army of orcs now approaching, the forces of the dwarves will be essential to prevent a ruinous invasion.
