Product description 

TRNS is the first authentic 3D real-time adventure to come to the market in 1999. 
This game takes the story and characters from Michael Ende's world-renowned best 
seller "The Neverending Story" and turns them into a diverse and absorbing action adventure.


TRNS features an intelligent combination of action, suspense, skills, brain-teasing puzzles 
and tricky combat, building up into a powerful story, with captivating special effects. 
It's the only game on the market which combines a 3D real-time indoor engine with a 
revolutionary 3D real-time outdoor engine with free-flowing transition between the two. 
The result is that the player has complete freedom of movement throughout the game - you 
can walk, fly, swim or dive wherever you want to. This, combined with the high-speed action 
and rich European fantasy style of the story, makes TRNS a unique experience.

TRNS features the dauntless hero Atreyu, your character in TRNS the game, and his thrilling 
encounters with Falcor the luck-dragon, the Rock Biter and the Childlike Empress in the 
Ivory Tower, plus a wide variety of other fascinating characters.

TRNS is a rare example of genuine interactive story-telling with outstanding gameplay. 
As well as the total freedom of movement, you can also converse with other characters 
including non-playing characters, or NPCs, using emotion-based dialogue for added realism.

Michael Ende's "The Neverending Story" has now been the inspiration for three movies, which 
have been seen by over 32 million cinema-goers around the world - and further 750,000 on 
video, and a 52-episode TV series as well as the original books which have now sold over 
6,5 million copies.

Furthermore, re-publishers can count on highly efficient, cost-effective localization 
support, built on discreet monsters many years of experience as localizer of products in 
other languages for the German-speaking CD-ROM market.
