7 itemsAbout the Game
Essentures is inspired by the great games of the 90s and late 80s, but incorporates the improvements and concepts of modern gaming. You will experience a grand adventure through 4 kingdoms wherein you can use mysterious creatures as both allies or weapons! It's entirely up to you how you will travel through this world, defeating the Ancient Gods and discovering the universe's mysteries as you do.
Essentures mixes Action and Turn RPG combat systems in a unique system that encapsulates strategic thinking of RPGs and the thrill of real-time combat! To achieve this, the mechanics of both genres were blended in such a way so as to limit the weaknesses of both while exemplifying their strengths. This, mixed with many new mechanics, the reimagining of existing mechanics, a unique battle system, and an epic story creates a unique experience only Essentures can offer!
In Essentures each creature has an infant stage and an adult stage. The infant stage is shared among members of the same family, each with its own respective color, while each adult stage is unique. There are a grand total of 320 creatures in the game, composed of 250 adult forms and 70 infant forms. Each creature can be transformed into a weapon form optionally in battles to create lots of strategies!
