About the game

Al-Qadim: The Genie's Curse is a 1994 action RPG from Cyberlore, published by SSI under the Advanced Dungeons & Dragons license. Rather than the turn-based party systems SSI was known for with its Gold Box games, this one draws on the Al-Qadim campaign setting, an Arabian Nights-flavored corner of the Forgotten Realms full of genies, corsairs and desert intrigue. You control a single hero in real-time combat and exploration, giving it a faster, more arcade-like feel than the studio's usual output.

The exotic setting is the real draw: flying carpets, sha'ir spellcasters and a story built around a family curse tied to the genies of the title set it apart visually and thematically from the standard medieval-European fantasy of the time. As an action-RPG it's lighter on the deep stat management D&D fans might expect, but that also makes it more approachable. It stands today as a distinctive attempt to translate a less-used AD&D world into a real-time adventure.
