The Nibelungen Saga ends with the fall of the Nibelungen. The legendary treasure of the Nibelungen was sunk in the Rhine and washed away by the tides. Here, where the legend ends, the game begins with the search for the immeasurable treasure of the Nibelungen. The race of the giants has discovered the treasure and stand guard over it. The giants are so strong that they cannot be defeated directly in a fight; however, they may be overcome with cunning and treachery. The players are great heroes from the houses of various kings that have been sent to get past the giants and steal the treasure from them. The winner will be the first hero that succeeds in bringing a large portion of the legendary treasures of the Nibelungen to the castle.
