Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn

Baldur’s Gate II: Shadows of Amn is a role-playing video game developed by BioWare and published by Interplay Entertainment. It is the sequel to Baldur’s Gate (1998) and was released for Microsoft Windows in September 2000. Like Baldur’s Gate, the game takes place in the Forgotten Realms—a fantasy campaign setting—and is based on the Advanced Dungeons & Dragons 2nd edition rules. Powered by BioWare’s Infinity Engine, Baldur’s Gate II uses an isometric perspective and pausable real-time gameplay. The player controls a party of up to six characters, one of whom is the player-created protagonist, while the others are certain characters recruited from the game world.
Set in the fictional Forgotten Realms, much of Baldur’s Gate II takes place in and around Athkatla, a city in the country of Amn. Opening shortly after the events of Baldur’s Gate, the game continues the story of the protagonist, Gorion’s Ward, whose unique heritage has now drawn the attention of Jon Irenicus, a powerful and sinister mage. The storyline revolves around the machinations of Irenicus and the player’s encounters with him.
