Bad Blood (1990)

Bad Blood is Chris Roberts' third credit at Origin Systems. He worked on this game as Designer, Director and Additional Programming. The Game is a top-view, post-apocalyptic action role-playing game from 1990.

You can not create your own character but have to pick one of the three different fellowships: Varrigg (a strong green mutant who fights with his bare hands), Dekker (a human male armed with a knife) or Jakka (who looks human but fires laser beams from her eyes). The choice you make has only a limited impact on gameplay and storyline. Gameplay consists of exploring the world map, visiting several cities and villages, talking with NPCs, picking up items and new weapons (shotguns, grenades, Uzis, etc.) and lots of real-time combat. The game has a day-night cycle which influences the amount of monsters on the plains and whether or not you can talk with some NPCs.

Trivia:

The Cover is by Larry Elmore an American fantasy artist whose work includes creating illustrations for video games, comics, magazines, and fantasy books, specially illustrations for Dungeons&Dragons.
