The title of this game translates as "The Bard's Story," which is the name of the main character. He's, let's say, an unpleasant character: Bard is egocentric, stingy, and believes that anything is possible if you're bold enough.
You'll begin the game by creating your own Bard. Their class will be predetermined (they're skilled in magic and crafts — a jack of all trades, as the saying goes), but you can customize the details to your liking. Afterward, you'll discover that your hero is willing to take on almost any job — if they offer a substantial reward, but not always. Sometimes you'll encounter such deceived comrades and either flee or fight them off.
Features:
Travel from city to city, completing various missions – after all, your hero loves to earn some extra money;
your hero is a favorite of fortune, so he will be able to get out of any trouble - with your help, of course;
you will be engaged in various activities - witchcraft, crafting, fighting, and perhaps the need for a talented performance of a folk song may suddenly arise;
Bard's life would be fun and carefree if he didn't regularly create trouble for himself... however, he comes out of it beautifully and with humor, and sometimes with violence, let's be honest.
The game is a surprising satire on many contemporary cultural influences. You'll see numerous references and ironies aimed at various trends (note that the game was released back in 2005, so its references will be relevant to that era).
