8 itemsAbout the Game
Estrada Real: Path of Souls is a 2D action RPG that dives into the deep roots of colonial Brazil. Combining frenetic combat, exploration of baroque-inspired scenarios, and a narrative based on ancestry, the game invites you to uncover the secrets that the mist of the Minas Gerais mountains tried to hide.
BRAVE THE TRAILS OF ESTRADA REAL
As Father Ezequiel, a survivor marked by a mysterious past, you will travel the Estrada Real to face a darkness that defies the Church's understanding. Use your knowledge of the supernatural to purify corrupted villages and discover the truth about your indigenous, African, and Portuguese origins.
MASTER SYNCRETISM AND ANCESTRY
Faith is not your only weapon. Combine precise steel handling with powerful rituals and ancestral magic. Choose how to face your enemies: banishing souls with sacred prayers or using the wild instinct of your roots to survive the dangers of the dense forest.
FACE THE SUPERNATURAL IN MINAS GERAIS
A cast of mysterious characters, tormented spirits, and regional folklore entities awaits you. Interact with the inhabitants of the Village of Broken Rosary, discover stories of ancestral injustices, and decide who deserves salvation and who must face final judgment.
BUILT FOR EVOLUTION
New challenges arise as you delve deeper into the Path of Souls. Use the progression system based on three pillars — Faith, Strength, and Instinct — to unlock new abilities, improve your attributes, and customize your combat style to face haunted bosses inspired by Minas Gerais legends.
A JOURNEY FOR EVERYONE
With responsive combat mechanics and permanent character upgrades, the game offers a balanced experience for those seeking a good story, but does not hesitate to punish those who underestimate the entities guarding the Estrada Real. Test your skills in clashes that require attention and dexterity.
BAROQUE AND MYSTERIOUS ATMOSPHERE
The rich visual presentation in detailed pixel art brings to life the baroque architecture and landscapes of Minas Gerais. An original soundtrack, mixing sacred elements and ancestral rhythms, completes the immersion in this "Deep Brazil" where the sacred and the profane walk side by side.
