About the Game

A Volta Dos Que Não Foram is a third-person action-adventure game blending RPG elements with challenging Souls-like combat, set in a dystopian medieval era.

Taking control of Tonhão Marreta (Big Tony "The Sledge"), a clumsy and notoriously lazy blacksmith, you are forced to drop your anvil and pick up weapons to face the apocalypse. Your mission is to crush the evil hordes that took over your homeland and prevent the complete destruction of your world.

COMBAT SYSTEM AND GAMEPLAY

  • Souls-like Combat: Master the rhythm of third-person tactical battles. Wield heavy swords, time your shield blocks perfectly, and dodge fatal blows. Every single mistake could be your end.

  • Steel and Sorcery: Combine brute force with mystical abilities. Seamlessly switch between classic melee combat and devastating spells to control crowds of enemies or exploit elemental weaknesses.

CHARACTER PROGRESSION

  • Attribute Evolution: Defeat apocalyptic forces to gather experience and level up Big Tony’s core stats, making him tougher, faster, and much more lethal.

  • Magic Upgrades: Brute force won't save you—you must evolve your magic! Upgrade your spells to increase their efficiency, boost damage, and unlock brand-new visual and mechanical effects on the battlefield.

ENEMIES AND CHALLENGES

You will face a wide variety of threats that require distinct strategic approaches:

  • Corrupted Human warriors and brutal Orcs.

  • Monstrous creatures, Skeletons, and Wizards attacking from a distance.

  • Epic Bosses: Grand encounters with exclusive mechanics that will test your reflexes, your strategy, and your patience.

FEATURES & INCLUDED CONTENT

  • Full Main Campaign: A journey packed with action, humor, and challenges, offering an estimated 6 to over 10 hours of gameplay depending on player skill.

  • Bonus Arena Mode: After completing the main story, test your skills in the Arena Mode, facing ruthless waves of enemies that will push your limits.

  • Immersive Soundtrack: An epic musical score that dictates the grim tone of this dystopian medieval world, shifting into tense arrangements during epic boss fights.
