Avernum is a classic and famous Europe & America nostalgic style indie dungeon RPG series game. Positively, its main features are very obvious: super huge maps, hundreds of hours of game time, open-ended plots, hidden Easter eggs...

The name of Avernum has a prototype in our real life. That's named from a famous old crater (Avernus) near to Naples port in Italy, which has become a lake now. That was an entrance to the hell according to local legend, so Avernus became the pronoun of hell.

In game, the Avernum also completely accords with the legend: all sorts of goblins; various bandits; cannibal lizards; sorts of volcano eruptions with of lava and poison gas; sundry catwomans and lizardmans; dark damp environments; weak and sick phrators... All of them just seem to come from the hell, but the only thing that does not lack is your freedom.
