About This Item

Delve into a world of sarcastic humor and hack-and-slash action with The Bard's Tale for PlayStation 2 (PS2). Released in 2004 by inXile Entertainment, this action RPG stands out with its unique comedic approach to the fantasy genre. You play as the cynical Bard, a self-serving musician whose only interests are coin and cleavage, as he reluctantly gets drawn into an epic quest to save the world. The game parodies classic RPG tropes, offering witty dialogue, hilarious characters, and a refreshing departure from traditional high fantasy narratives. Summon creatures to aid you in combat, solve puzzles, and make choices that influence the Bard's disposition, affecting how NPCs react to him.

The Bard's Tale offers a rich narrative experience with a distinct art style and voice acting, including Cary Elwes (from "The Princess Bride") as the voice of the Bard. Its blend of action, role-playing elements, and irreverent humor makes it a memorable title for PS2 enthusiasts and fans of unique RPGs. This edition for the PlayStation 2 allows you to experience this cult classic on its original platform.
