Entomorph: Plague of the Darkfall is an action-adventure role-playing video game by Strategic Simulations, Inc. In Entomorph, the player controls the character Warrick. It is the second video game based in the fictional universe World of Aden, the first being World of Aden: Thunderscape. (Though both games share the same setting, Entomorph is not a sequel to Thunderscape.)
In this game you play the character squire Warrick who wants to try and find his sister Suiliana, When the game starts, you are briefed by a mysterious giant spider.
Upon seeing you she starts a monologue which goes something like this:
"Life if like a spider's web. The possible combinations of possible strands are ...limitless.
But for some vile reason- which I cannot comprehend- I am Doomed to spend every single strand with single-minded, backward-thinking Fools! Like You...who think themselves heroes.
why am I cursed in this way? it does not matter."
and with that, she raises her claw and casts a spell on you. You find yourself on an island, near an abandoned village, with no memory of how you got there. You continue on to a village nearby, where your aunt and Uncle live. Then some giant mosquitoes, a type of Jagtera attack. After killing these Jagtera you are found worthy to be a hero of a story.
The story moves around a mysterious sorcerer which give a cursed item to the Queen of the island, which turned her into a insect queen, spawning and plaguing the land with over-sized intelligent insects. To defeat the insects it seems likely that you will become one of them.
