About the Game

Aeschylus actually just wanted to enjoy his weekend when the fate of an untimely demise befalls him. But even in the afterlife he finds no peace, because there is one last chance for everyone to fight their way back to life: the path.

The path is full of monsters, traps, aberrations, puzzles and powerful boss monsters and only those who follow it to the end will be allowed to return to this world.

Help Aeschylus become stronger by gaining experience, learning new skills and finding powerful weapons.

Follow the path

Fight monsters

Key features:

Action-packed third-person combat: Keep hordes of enemies under control with abilities, while taking down individual enemies with your melee weapons.

Overcome all obstacles: Move through jump and run passages and avoid traps.

Varied linear levels: Fight your way through different stages of the path. A linear fantasy world in a parallel universe. Find your way back to the real world and explore a city (strikingly similar to the city of Bern in Switzerland).

Experience Aeschylus' story: Spoiler, he dies.

Elements of a role-playing game: Find stronger weapons and level up by gaining experience from battles.
