Dungeons of the Amber Griffin

Game mechanics

In Dungeons of the Amber Griffin we observe the action from a first-person perspective (FPP). We start the game by creating a team of four players. The developers put at our disposal a variety of character classes, among which we can find a warrior, barbarian, rogue, priest or mage. Further on, there is nothing left for us to do but to throw ourselves into adventures.

We travel through Mystic Kashubia, have conversations with its inhabitants and complete the tasks set before us. The locations we visit are based on real places, and the names of the places we go to come from the Kashubian language. Of course, we don't end up only in settlements; there is a lot of picturesque countryside, ruins and gloomy undergrounds full of traps. In addition, battles with enemies play an important role here. Various demons and monsters stand in our way, and the unique bestiary is based on creatures from Kashubian legends. On the battlefield, the key to success is primarily the skillful use of the abilities of individual characters.

As we progress, we develop the protagonists, unlocking new skills and improving the ones we already have. In addition, the combat potential of the heroes grows thanks to increasingly better equipment; along the way we acquire new weapons, armor, as well as various artifacts and magical scrolls. When traveling in Kashubia, it's also worth looking under your feet, as unique healing plants or poisonous mushrooms grow in these areas, which can also prove useful.

Technical aspects

Dungeons of the Amber Griffin has a good quality graphics. The locations are especially pleasing to the eye, although the enemies or the effects accompanying the casting of spells cannot be faulted much either. The soundtrack is composed by Przemyslaw Ziolkowski and performed by the band Percival Schuttenbach, whose music could be heard earlier in The Witcher 3: Wild Gon.
