Another cross-posting :
An additional "source" could be this online, browser-based TDE game site : http://www.tde-games.com/
"Conspiracy At Ferdok" is a side-story of Drakensang 1, part two of this Adventure (which is called "Death Trail", I think) is commercial.
And - yes, these are official games. Chromatrix is the TDE license holder for all video games based on the TDE rule set.
The only drawback is, that these browser-based games play rather like text adventures. Almost no graphics at all, but you'll get another insight into Aventuria.

Meanwhile browsing through a thread in "Crystal's DSA Foren" containing regarding the NLT, I have followed a few of them, and repost them here :
- Interview with Guido Henkel : http://www.atarilegend.com/interview…nterview_id=23
- Horror novels written by Guido Henkel : http://www.jasondarkseries.com/
- Realms Of Arcania ( = NLT ) mailing list : http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/realmsofarkania/
- Translator of the first two Realms Of Arcania games ? : http://bbrathwaite.wordpress.com/about/
- An overview over the last game : http://www.hardcoregaming101.net/arkania/arkania4.htm
- From Crystal's DSA-Foren : The required points for levelling up : As you can see, the German and the English-language games have different values there : http://nlt-hilfe.crystals-dsa-foren.de/page.php?211
- Realms Of Arcania in Russian language ? http://www.realms-of-arkania.narod.ru/index.htm
- A story of playing Realms Of Arcania : http://www.irontowerstudio.com/forum…ic,2365.0.html
As it turned out, there seem to exist different language versions for ROA games as well. Someone in the forums of Crystal reported buying a Spanish-language version. Moby Games lists titles for other languages as well.
