The legend begins! Play heroes of epic stature against the forces of evil. Five heroes awoke from the dead and were made immortal to save the kingdom from the rise of darkness. In Sword & Sorcery: Immortal Souls, up to five players control one or more of these legendary characters brought back to life by powerful sorcery, to fight against the forces of evil, controlled by the game itself.

Each enemy has different fighting styles, multiple behaviors, weapons, and additional powers. Each enemy is described by a miniature, a tarot-sized Enemy scroll, and the Enemy card (to keep track of the defensive capabilities of the enemy,
