<a href="http://www.gamershell.com/">Gamer's Hell</a> has a <a href="http://www.gamershell.com/news/bPreludetoDarknessbDemo.shtml">demo</a> available for <A href="http://www.zero-sum.com/">Prelude to Darkness</a>, the 3D, fantasy, turn based CRPG done in the spirit of the old <i>Ultima</i> series of CRPGs. The demo is <b>70MB</b>. Here's a bit on the game taken from the <a href="http://www.zero-sum.com/faq.html">FAQ</a>:
<br>
<br>
<blockquote><b>How will I create them?</b>
<br>
<br>
Character creation will involve distributing points for each of the three members of the player's party in order to increase skills, bloodlines, and attributes.
<br>
<br>
<b>What kind of classes and races are available?</b>
<br>
<br>
Class is not appropriate for this system, the player may or may not choose a background for the character, but the character is defined by his skills and attributes, not a class.
<br>
<br>
There are three races available, all of which are human: Flame, River and Mixed. The racial composition of the player's party can have a huge affect on gameplay, influencing the magics available to a character, the items and skills he can learn and the people he can interact with. Gender will have an effect on NPC interactions as well.</blockquote>
