Torchlight

Torchlight Info

Word of Ember blazed across the land, and the town of Torchlight
flared to life.
Ember is the essence of magic and the keystone of alchemy; it lures
the restless with promises of power and riches. Miners burrowed deep
beneath the dirt streets of Torchlight, discovering veins of the ore
richer than any found in living memory- but they were not the first to
covet these mines. The miners broke through into the buried past, a
dangerous labyrinth of caverns and ruined civilizations, twisted
creatures and the bones of those who came before. Evil bubbles up from
the depths and threatens to overrun this town as it has so many others.
The heart of a villain has infused the Ember, and his darkness seeps
through the veins. To survive, the townspeople must break the cycle of
destruction; they need a champion who can destroy the evil at its root.
Removing the source of the rot may purify the Ember, but it is a long
and perilous journey. The champion must battle through rock and fire,
through lost cities and ancient tombs, into the palace of the villain
himself.
The adventure is set in the mining settlement of Torchlight, a
boomtown founded on the discovery of rich veins of Ember – a rare and
mysterious ore with the power to enchant or corrupt all that it
contacts. This corruptive power may have dire consequences however, and
players set out into the nearby mountains and depths below to discover
the full extent of Ember’s influence on the civilizations that have come
before.
Players will choose from among three character classes, and venture
from the safety of the town of Torchlight into randomly generated
dungeon levels, with a huge variety of creepy monsters, endless
variations of loot to find, and quests to complete. The endless
randomization ensures a long-lived gameplay experience.
