The northern lands - that is the Nordling Realms, described by Andrzej Sapkowski in his novels and short stories, are threatened by unspeakable doom. According to the prophecy of Ithilinne, an elven seeres, the world will be destroyed during the Time of White Cold and White Light - frost, snow and a glacier that will cover the lands from the north.
A cruel and bloody war with the southern empire of Nilfgaard and the elves has recenly ended, but left the northern lands ravished and destroyed. The reign of quarrelling and short-sighted kings is falling. Amongst the chaos and confusion, a new bastion of peace rises - The Order of the Burning Rose. The monk-knights promise to bring peace and prosperity, and unite all the Nordling realms. The knights claim that the coming frost may only be defeated by the power of fire, which they worship. However the ones to survive the cataclysm are generally the pure-blooded Nordlings. The Order is getting more and more powerful. It has been given lands in the kingdom of Aedrin and fights there against the elves from the Valley of the Flowers. The monks want to win favors of the monarchs from the twelve northern realms, and strive to acquire the wastelands inhabited by elves.
Features:
- Three plotlines will interweave to form a compelling plot.
- Multi-layered storyline will feature interrogation about the witchers' mutation formulas, an epic conflict of powers and the hero's personal struggle to regain his own identity.
- Players will build their character by developing more than 250 different special abilities.
- The game will contain over 2,000 pages of absorbing dialogue (the quantity might change in the course of game development).
- Over 100 intriguing, main-storyline quests will be enriched by at least a hundred side quests.
- The storyline will be divided into six chapters, each divided into two or more episodes. Each of them will comprise an autonomic part of the story and each will reveal certain secrets concerning the main character's identity.
- Geralt will employ six distinct combat modes, comprised of three styles (strong, swift and group) for two different types of swords (steel and silver)
- 15 general traits will be developed during the game: four attributes, six fighting styles and five magical powers.
- The Witcher is a sword master. To fight effectively he will use two blades: a silver sword that is most effective against monsters, and a steel one, most effective against humans.

The Witcher (Enhanced Edition) Platinum
The Witcher (Enhanced Edition) Platinum is a must-buy, for every PC player. The story will make you want to play for hours. The Witcher's world is vast and beautiful, the characters well-featured and the gameplay is fantastic. I would strongly recommend buy The Witcher.

A RPG masterpiece
The Witcher should be the dictionary definition of an adult RPG. It has a great story, with adult content, like racism, sex, adultery... The world of the Witcher is immersive and dark, as a medieval age should be, and the quests are varied. By today standings the graphics are still good, and the gameplay is good. The only thing that could have been better are the number of weapons, you stick with the same two swords most of the game. The Witcher is a game still worth playing and with the new free content.

Great RPG, great content
I found the Witcher amazing, the plot is tight and interesting and the characters are well made and interesting. Geralt is one of the best lead-characters in games. The fact that it is somewhat linear, i.e. the areas are confined etc is a negative for RPGs in general but I liked it since I don't want to walk for 20 minutes just to realise I was the wrong way. Still you dont feel that you're just walking down coridors. There are some open-spaces it's just not a huge open-world. The platinum edition includes a printed grey-scale manual and a color game guide that gives info on the quests, main characters and profession. Pretty good to catch the basics of the game. Definitely worth buying.

The Witcher EE Platinum
The Witcher is one of those games that fully captivates you with its atmosphere, mature story and game-play. Add quality graphics and one of the best soundtracks PC role-playing games had to offer and you get some pure RPG gem. On top of that, this Enhanced Version includes a lot of extra content so the choice should be obvious, get this game while it's still available.
