Geneforge Geneforge is the first in a series of computer role-playing games created by Jeff Vogel of Spiderweb Software. It was released as shareware for the Macintosh on December 12, 2001. The Windows version followed on March 19, 2002. Players assume the role of an apprentice Shaper, a sect of mages who can create living creatures through force of will. The apprentice is cast away on an island abandoned by the sect 200 years prior. The island contains groups of the Shapers' creations, who have formed their own ideologies regarding the sect. The player must escape after dealing with the forces at work to steal the Shaper secrets abandoned on Sucia Isle. Geneforge is played in an isometric perspective, featuring 77 different areas including towns and dungeons. The game's world map is used to bypass previously explored areas. [source:wikipedia]
