Demon Stone - Forgotten Realms: Live the Legend

Demon Stone isn’t an action movie, but it could be, thanks to Stormfront Studios' impressive game engine and its gripping story, crafted by the bestselling fantasy author R.A. Salvatore. Demon Stone takes 3D adventure and action games to a whole new level.

Dungeons & Dragons is synonymous with great storytelling, and Demon Stone is no exception. One of its standout features is its thrilling script, penned by R.A. Salvatore. Known for books like The Dark Elf and Legacy of the Drow, Salvatore weaves an epic tale here, told through the language of video games.

The Story

Following classic RPG traditions, Demon Stone revolves around a group of characters with unique abilities—stealth, magic, and brute strength. Each one showcases their skills as they progress through the game’s different stages.

The party consists of Rannek, a warrior; Illius, a sorcerer; and Zhai, a rogue (daughter of a Drow and a dark elf). Through them, you’ll experience fantastical battles worthy of knightly legends. One highlight is the climactic fight against a red dragon near the game’s end, where the tension ramps up as the story reaches its peak. There’s even a moment where you control a massive Shield Guardian that crushes enemies like bugs.

But the story wouldn’t shine as much without Stormfront Studios’ work. They deliver stunning character animations and flawless graphics. The game’s progression is deep—characters "learn" new attacks and more elaborate combat techniques, with corresponding upgrades to their animated combos.

Set in the legendary Forgotten Realms universe—specifically in Faerûn—Demon Stone is a land where dangerous fiends and mighty heroes are surrounded by magic, prophecies, and mystery.

You’ll control a trio—a fighter, a sorcerer, and a rogue—on a mission to fix a grave mistake and shape the future. With controls that switch on the fly and specialized combat styles (ranged, melee, and skirmish), players can maximize their characters’ strengths, molding them into a well-balanced team. The game’s cinematic effects and thrilling gameplay take fantasy action-adventure to new heights.

The Graphics

Demon Stone’s story and visuals shine brightest in the cutscenes introducing each stage. With a soundtrack fit for an epic adventure and solid voice acting, you’re pulled into the world of Dungeons & Dragons’ Forgotten Realms—more precisely, Faerûn. This land is on the brink of chaos due to the clash between two spirits: a Slaad Lord and a Githyanki General. The heroes can only save Faerûn with the Demon Stone, setting off the game’s main quest.

Before diving in, players get an introductory stage to familiarize themselves with the controls and test out key combos needed to progress. While each character’s wide range of abilities (attacks, spells, movements, etc.) can feel overwhelming at first, the controls become more intuitive as you advance.

The game also features RPG staples like leveling up and buying new weapons and abilities. There’s even an auto-purchase option if you’d rather focus on the action—though manually upgrading your gear is recommended to better adapt to each stage. Some levels get tough, like the one with the giant spider.

Features

Each character in Demon Stone offers unique gameplay:

• The Warrior: Smashes columns and shatters ice walls.
• The Sorcerer: Blasts enemies with devastating spells and traps groups in glowing magical nets.
• The Rogue: Strikes from the shadows, ambushing foes with stealth attacks.

Stormfront Studios’ impressive engine makes the game feel like an action movie, blending cinematic visuals with full-on video game action. The 3D characters and environments are rendered with dynamic, movie-like camera angles.

The game also boasts a well-crafted story by R.A. Salvatore, featuring intense, fast-paced battles against 15+ enemies at once, with combo systems to wipe them out.

Character upgrades are bought with experience points. For example, the Sorcerer can learn stronger spells, while the Rogue can enhance her invisibility. You can also buy a variety of weapons, armor, and accessories—like gauntlets, rings, and cloaks—to boost each character’s abilities.

Players will face a wide range of enemies, including Bugbears, Trolls, Mind Flayers, Slaads, and Yuan-Ti—all iconic Forgotten Realms foes.

There are ten beautifully detailed levels, like the Gemspark Mines, Cedarleaf, and the Chult Jungle, all set in the Forgotten Realms universe. The dramatic orchestral soundtrack pulls you deeper into this amazing world of action and adventure.

The game also tests your skills with challenges and throws hordes of enemies at you, like Bugbears, Trolls, Mind Flayers, Slaads, and Yuan-Ti—all unique to Forgotten Realms.
