Info
Defeat Hecubah, Queen of the Undead, Then Rule the Internet Battleground.
Set in a land filled with discovery and deceit, Nox is a fast paced action game.
Three Ways to Play
Choose the path of the Warrior and crush your opponents with power and speed. Learn the ways of the Wizards and watch enemies cower rather than face your power. Or, follow the path of the Conjurer and summon creatures of nature to do your bidding.
Traps
Nox allows you to create your own traps and puzzles in both solo and multiplay.
 Deviousness and cunning are positive attributes in this world. Imagine casting an opponent into a room filled with venemous spiders or into a pit full of lava.
Spells, Weapons & Abilities
Nox has over 50 different spells, weapons and special abilities. Summon a blood thirsty wolf to track down a sneaky opponent, conjure the Force of Nature to destroy a cavern full of demons or mow down opponents with the Staff of Oblivion. Summon up eight minions to do your bidding.
True Vision
This innovative line of sight system creates a high level of suspense and excitement.
Multiplay
Play over the definitive Internet battleground, Westwood Online, team up with friends to capture the flag or dominate them in deathmatch.
Interactive Environment
Move rocks to block passages. Break barrels of water to put out fires or blow up powder kegs and watch the debris turn into deadly shrapnel.
 Be cunning. Be devious, Play Nox...
