The semi-sequel to the adventure/RPG Betrayal at Krondor (the real sequel is Return to Krondor, published by 7th Level), you play characters entwined in the dangerous political situation of the empire.

It features SVGA first-person graphics (based on the BaK engine), voice actors for NPCs, a "strategic turn based hex map combat" system, new magic system that "enables your characters to learn from spells cast against them" and new automap and flashback features. (quotes from Sierra's web page).
