It’s hard to be a fairy in videogames. Remember, Navi inOcarina of Timeis universally derided, and Rare has basically gone on the record stating thatKameojust shouldn’t have happened. So when a studio decides to take a fairy and make it the main character of their game, they are certainly walking on thin ice. This hasn’t stopped Spiders Game Weavers, a Parisian game studio known previously for converting and porting titles. They have their very first original game,Faery: Legends of Avalon, coming to Xbox Live, PlayStation Network, and Steam in early November, and, yep, it stars a fairy. A somewhat badass fairy, but a fairy all the same. Oddly, the game is also a traditional turn-based RPG with a rather lovely art direction. Grab your pixie wings, magic wand, and put on your Enya CD, we’re about to go to a land of magic and wonder inFaery: Legends of Avalon.
