About the Game

PRESENTATION

This is a classic 2D old-school RPG in the style of the retro Super NES and Genesis RPGs such as Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest.

After the cataclysms not much was left of the Ruskin Lands, once a prosperous and peaceful Kingdom. Now, those who struggle to survive in a destroyed and decayed land, do so in the hopes of one day ascending to the Winged City. The capital of the Winged Ones, a group of people of very specialized high technology, the only ones able to live a good quality life, free of diseases and hunger, after the cataclysms.

Caldwell and Caldwyn, two former soldiers in the army of the Ruskin Kingdom, fight together to survive in what used to be their hometown. One day, while exploring the ruins of an ancient shrine, they find what could be the cure of their world, now full of disease, hunger and suffering. This cure comes in the form of a woman.

While pursuing answers to find out more about her, they will also find out a lot about themselves and their brotherhood.
