About
Relive this amazing RPG on a handheld console and experience the game that revolutionized roleplaying games on the go! Gothic Classic offers great performance, a well-adapted user interface, and controls. It is a deep RPG with a lively simulation set in dark times and adventures.
The kingdom of Myrtana is at war. Orcish hordes have invaded the human territory, and the king needs plenty of ore to forge enough weapons for his army to stand against the threat. In these darkest of times, those who break the law are sentenced to serve in the giant penal colony of Khorinis, where they mine the much-needed ore. Throw into this prison colony, you must survive, form alliances, and ultimately escape.
