The land of Rivellon is about to collapse ? dark, evil powers stared a war with the people of the Seven Races. But there is still hope ? the ancient prophecy about the chosen one may come true with your help, dear player.
Divine Divinity is a role playing game featuring a gameplay experience somewhere between Sacred and the Ultima series. You can choose from 3 typical character archetypes ? Fighter, Mage and Survivor (Rogue like class). Each one has a unique special skill. The rest of your character development its up to you imagination ? you can even learn skills from other classes and make a very unique character build.

The game is long, challenging and very addictive. You will encounter many different enemies and a very big variety of quests and story missions. When you add great music and not so dated graphics you will get a full RPG experience!

Features
There are four huge maps totalling over 20,000 screens, with a wide range of environments such as elven forests, a demon wasteland, farmlands, towns, fortifications and extensive sewer systems. The world is extensive, and includes numerous details such as epitaphs on tombstones. There are more than 150 non player characters, many with detailed background stories and depth, and a large number of varied villains.
For the players choice of character, there are three character classes and two genders, totaling six possible starters. The three classes are Survivor (a rogue like character), Warrior and Wizard. They have slightly different conversions of statistics. For example a warrior gains 6 health points per constitution point, whilst a survivor gains only five points. Each character class has a unique movement form, such as the sneak ability for the Survivor, switch places ability for a Wizard, and the Warriors special skill is an attack that damages enemies of all angles within the attacking range.. However, any class can use any of the other two skill paths, which each have 36 separate skills. The six characters have distinct appearances that can be modified by placing equipment on them, such as armour or helmets.

A random equipment generator allows a wide variety of items, similar to the item system of Diablo II. Items can be upgraded using objects called charms, as well as the enchant item skill, allowing further customization. There are also slightly more than 50 (relatively) fixed items, with varying powers.
