Nox was a unique and fresh attempt of Westwood Studios to excel Diablo's success. While being a good game with both a challenging single player campaign and fast and furios multiplayer battles, Nox fell behind and is mostly forgotten today. Nox was released in 2000 on the PC for Windows systems. The player is cast in the shoes of Jack, a very normal American guy. Jack becomes the victim of a magic storm, created by the dark witch Hecubah to retrieve a powerful artifact from his van. He finds himself at the world of Nox trying to defend his new home, which is under attack by Hecubah.
