Jade Empire

The student is revealed to be the last in the line of Spirit Monks, whose abode was destroyed several years ago by the Emperor's army.

The student ventures into a nearby cave to retrieve a part of an ancient amulet; meanwhile, the assailants burn down the town and abduct Master Li.

The student and a few companions decide to go all the way to the Imperial Capital and explore the Jade Empire in order to rescue the master, find the truth about the past, and discover the dark secrets of the Empire's rulers.

Jade Empire is a role-playing game set in a fantasy world which has strong similarities to China of the Qing dynasty (within some steampunk elements), incorporating not only classical elements of Chinese culture, but also supernatural beings and forces.

Similar to other BioWare RPGs (such as Knights of the Old Republic ) in general concept and features, the game has overall simpler gameplay and a somewhat smaller world.

The combat in the game is action-based, relying on various martial art techniques and moves performed by the protagonist.

The player has direct control only over the main character, although other characters join the party; one of them can be selected to help the protagonist in battles, either for purely supportive purposes or as an additional combatant.

The player character has three attributes: Body, Mind, and Spirit, which control the secondary parameters of Health, Focus, and Chi, as well as the conversation skills Charm, Intuition, and Intimidation.

Focus energy is needed to fight with weapons (swords and staves), while Chi is used to heal the protagonist or perform supernatural attacks compara

Loose means cartridge or disc only, CIB (complete in box) includes the original box and manual, and sealed means factory-sealed and never opened. For Jade Empire, loose is €15.32 and CIB is €8.23 — CIB commands a premium because original boxes and manuals are fragile and often don't survive.

The PAL version of Jade Empire is currently worth €15.32 loose, versus €13.11 for NTSC-U. Regional price differences usually come down to print run size and regional collector demand.
