Argonus and the Gods of Stone is a first person adventure game based on Greek mythology. The story is based on the novella by Betsy Brantley (Who Framed Roger Rabbit, The Princess Bride), and the fast-paced main theme is the work of acclaimed composer Rich Douglas.
The main character is Argon, a cartographer, traveler and historian, a member of Jason's expedition for the Golden Fleece. After the Argo ship is thrown onto sharp reefs (to the songs of insidious sirens), Argon is left alone.
The player will have to figure out where all the faithful companions who accompanied Argon on a sea voyage have gone, explore an amazing, colorful and dangerous world, and even come face to face with powerful monsters and the Deities of Ancient Greece. The climax is the decision of the protagonist to make a deal with the Goddess: only in exchange for Argon's help in the fight against the plague, the Argonauts will be given the opportunity to sail away in peace.
The gameplay includes not only skirmishes with opponents (however, a well-developed AI will make even these small battles become real challenges), but also solving various puzzles and ancient secrets, although the exploration of unknown territory remains the most important element of it.
