Wikipedia Description WIKIPEDIA

Elvira is a mix of first-person shooter role-playing game and point-and-click adventure game. The player will navigate around a castle and its grounds sent by Elvira to find six special keys to retrieve a magical dagger and scroll to kill Lady Emelda. In the exploration mode, the player will be able to traverse a room/passage at four different angles. In each angle the player can make use of ten verbal commands to pick up items, interact with objects or use items on objects. Puzzles are solved by using some items in correct situations. The player can be killed if incorrect procedures are done or face hostile encounters unprepared. When faced with an enemy, the gameplay mode will switch to combat mode. How well the player does defeating an opponent, depends on various conditions. Strength increases damage done, Resilience helps the player withstand damage, Dexterity increases the chance to hit the opponent, Skill helps the player make better use of weapons and shields and Life is how many hit points the player has before being killed by an enemy. Better swords and shields improve the player's fighting and defensive abilities. When attacking an enemy, the player must choose and time well a hack or slash attack. When defending from enemy blows, the player must choose and time well a block or parry move to avoid taking damage. Killing an enemy raises both experience and statistics.
