The game's release was due to coincide with the release of the latest edition of the board game, but has been indefinitely delayed.

Gameplay

"Talisman" is a fantasy hybrid board/role-playing game. Players move across a 3D virtual board, fighting creatures, collecting items, and strengthening their characters through experience. The ultimate goal is to defeat the other players, typically by reaching the "Crown of Command" on the game board.

The computerized translation supports up to four players, either online or offline. Including 25 different characters from the game and its expansions, it also promises additional downloadable content, such as extra characters and alternate ending conditions.
