Albion

Albion is a critically acclaimed role-playing game from 1996 developed by Blue Byte. Step into the shoes of Tom Driscoll, a pilot whose advanced spaceship crashes on what initially appears to be a desolate, resource-rich planet. Instead, Tom discovers a breathtaking, alien world teeming with diverse cultures, ancient mysteries, and unexpected dangers. Albion masterfully blends two distinct graphical perspectives: an overhead 2D view for towns and the overworld, and a detailed 3D first-person perspective for exploration inside buildings and dungeons. Engage in strategic turn-based combat as you uncover the truth about this enigmatic world, meet memorable companions, and unravel a sprawling narrative that challenges perceptions of alien life and corporate greed. Widely praised for its rich story, immersive atmosphere, and innovative presentation, Albion remains a classic of the genre.
