Your ship is destroyed by an unknown vessel and you are forced to land on an island that has been abandoned and swept away by your people. The events that follow will lead you to questions of power and responsibility, to secrets that were thought to be buried, and to the origin of what could be the ultimate realization of the Shapers' arts.

Geneforge is a shareware RPG title that lets you decide the course of your character. You can choose your allies, your creations and your objectives in the game's original setting. The game features isometric graphics, turn-based tactical combat and highly customizable summoned creatures.
