Neverwinter Nights game description
Neverwinter Nights is a new Dungeons & Dragons roleplaying game that has been designed specifically for the online, multiplayer environment and also allows you to experience all the magic of pen-and-paper Dungeon-Mastering on your home computer! Using Neverwinter Nights' powerful and user-friendly Neverwinter Toolset, you can create and populate entire new modular worlds and stories for others to adventure in. As an all-powerful Dungeon Master (DM), Neverwinter Nights even allows you to alter the plot, possess characters, and manage combat from behind the scenes, all in real time.

There are many different ways to enjoy Neverwinter Nights. In its simplest form, you can play Neverwinter Nights right out of the box as a Single-Player Game in the Official Campaign. In true BioWare tradition, the Official Campaign, which represents more than 60 hours of game play, is rich and epic, full of complex characters and surprise plot twists that will keep you glued to your screen until the wee morning hours. The Official Campaign is not limited to a single player. You can have your friends join your adventure at any time and the game will adjust for the larger number.

For all the strength of the single-player game, the world of Neverwinter Nights shines as a deeply engaging Multiplayer Game. Competitive modules have been developed, from simple arena matches to treasure races to team-based castle stormings. BioWare has developed additional modules and material for the Neverwinter Nights Community Site. More importantly, each and every module in the Neverwinter Nights Official Campaign is written and structured to encourage the cooperative, party-based game play that makes pen-and-paper D&D so rewarding. But remember: just because you've finished the story doesn't mean the game is over.

You can always continue your adventures by downloading exciting new Player-Designed Modules from fan and guild sites and our very own Neverwinter Nights Community Site. Whether you prefer single or multiplayer games, Neverwinter Nights represents a near-infinite amount of solid, D&D gaming.

Should you ever tire of these more traditional playing styles, there are still many fascinating new ways to enjoy the game: take on the role and responsibility of Dungeon Master and shape the gaming experience of your players on a fundamental level. Bring forth words of wisdom from a dragon's mouth, create entire new quests on the fly, or simply throw an orc tribe in the party's way to buy yourself some time.

Best of all, create your own worlds, tales, and adventures with our user-friendly Aurora Neverwinter Toolset and either host them yourself, make them available for download over the Internet, or establish them as part of a larger, persistent world where people can experience your handiwork around the clock.
