In the early 1990s game publisher SSI was churning up {{RPG}}s based on ''Advanced TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons'' and was the leader in that area. But the [=ADnD=] license was going to expire and relations with its owner Creator/{{TSR}} were getting progressively sour. Something new was needed. Thus ''Thunderscape: the World of Aden'' was born.

Corrected internal name
Changed line(s) 79 (click to see context) from:
* ArtifactName: The internal name of the starting level is "greymt_1", which likely refers to the ''TabletopGame/{{Greyhawk}}'' ''TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons'' setting. This also implies that development of ''Thunderscape'' started when SSI still had a healthy relationship with TSR.

Read Jason Meloy's rev 1.1 guide and confirmed that the third shop was found; updating.

* DramaticThunder: This happens nearly every time you move between menus, advance dialogue, or enter combat, which means you will hear the sound of thunder every few seconds while playing. The only action that consistently {{avert|edTrope}}s this trope is accessing the automap.
* DumpStat: The Pickpocket skill serves only one purpose: to steal items being sold in shops. This is not as useful as it sounds since there are very few shops in the game, the penalty for being caught stealing is to be barred from entering the shop, there will always be a chance for the steal to fail regardless of how many points a character has in the Pickpocket skill, and having over 100 points in a character's Merchant skill means you will sell equipment and items for a higher price than what the shop is selling them for, essentially giving you a risk-free and consistent alternative supply of gold.
