Snail Game, the developer behind the highly anticipated martial arts MMO Age of Wulin, joined hands with Russian developer Mental Games on a steampunk MMORPG Black Gold recently. The first gameplay video was unveiled last Friday. Today, we will take a first look at the background story of this steampunk world.
The game story starts in an interesting and unusual world full of adventures. In this world there exists a special resource, which is called "Black Gold". This resource doesn't only give power to steam engines, but also to the shamans and casters for magical use. From the "Black Gold" one can make a "Black Steam" - which combines the energy of steam and magic.
This world consists of Erlandir and Eisenhorst lands, which are separated by a Great Mountain Chain. Due to this mountain chain - the sun shines only on the Eastern part of the lands, that's why Erlandir is always lit with sun, while Eisenhorst is in a never ending darkness.
The rich sunlight on Erlandir gave birth to lots of elements under the land. These elements accumulated for centuries finally forming a magical resource - "Black Gold".
