"Advanced Dungeons & Dragons: Hillsfar" for the Nintendo NES is an action-role-playing video game developed by Westwood Associates and published by Strategic Simulations, Inc. in 1993. Set in the Dungeons & Dragons universe within the region of the Moonsea in Faerûn, players embark on various quests around the city of Hillsfar where they encounter numerous dungeons, monsters, and challenges. Unlike many RPGs from the same era, "Hillsfar" uniquely combines elements of action, adventure, and skill-based mini-games. Players can choose to play as different character classes such as Fighters, Clerics, Thieves, or Magic-Users, each offering distinct abilities and game experiences.
In "Hillsfar," the gameplay is divided into several notable segments, including first-person dungeon crawling, open-world exploration on horseback, and arcade-style mini-games that involve lock-picking and arena combat. One of the most distinctive aspects of the game is its non-linear progression, allowing players to undertake quests that differ depending on their chosen character class. This approach to game design provides a varied and customizable gameplay experience, contributing significantly to its replay value. Although "Hillsfar" was generally overshadowed by more famed titles in the Advanced Dungeons & Dragons series, it is remembered for its unique combination of RPG elements with action-oriented and skill-based segments, setting it apart from traditional role-playing games of the time.
