Description

Shadows over Riva is the third and final part in the Das Schwarze Auge trilogy.

Again Orcs have overrun the countryside of the small coast town of Riva. During their quest to bring these raids to an end, the party reveals a mystic and very exiting story and in the end saves the lifes of thousands of people.

This is the first part which was only shipped on CD-ROM and features SVGA graphics as well as a smooth scrolling 3D world. All other aspects of the game are nearly similar to its prequels.

  • "La sombra sobre Riva" -- Spanish Title
  • "DSA 3" -- Common German abbreviation
  • "Das Schwarze Auge: Schatten über Riva" -- German title

Trivia

A fourth game in the Das Schwarze Auge series called Armalion was almost released, until publisher Ikarion had to quit business due to financial difficulties. The source code may have been released under another name, maybe even as freeware (that is what the Ikarion guys told me). A link with a gameplay trailer can be found in the related links section.
