You wake up on a spaceship, kidnapped by octopus-headed aliens who have injected some sort of tadpole into your eye, destined to quickly and horribly transform you into one of their own. Suddenly attacked by warriors riding dragons, your jailers navigate through the dimensions to the underworld, where devils and demons attack them in turn. In the confusion, you manage to escape and, thanks to a new dimensional jump, cause the ship to crash on your home world. Gathering a few companions who are also infested by parasites, you set off on an adventure to try to find a cure, and confront the strange evil that threatens the city of Baldur’s Gate…

Adapt into a video game Dungeons & Dragons, one of the most iconic tabletop role-playing games, a genre where the only limits are those of the imagination, might seem like an insoluble problem. Since 1998, the series Baldur’s Gate nevertheless strives to meet the challenge brilliantly: its first two episodes, developed at the turn of the century by Bioware (better known today for Dragon Age et Mass Effect), have become references of the genre, and with Baldur’s Gate III, the Belgian studio Larian, which takes up the torch, in turn delivers a perfect copy.
