About the Game

Play as the Queen's Herald and immerse yourself in a text-based RPG full of choices and dice rolls. Interact with a diverse cast of characters, each with their own stories to tell and secrets to uncover. Navigate a web of alliances and rivalries as you forge relationships with factions and people throughout The Mists.

The Queen’s army is gone, and The Mists hold the answers. Embark on an adventure through a mist-shrouded world and uncover the secrets hidden behind it. Dive into the depths of intrigue and betrayal as you navigate a realm where nothing is as it seems.

Shape your destiny through your choices and actions. Become a cunning rogue, a masterful mage, a fearless warrior, or something uniquely your own. You are travelling all the time, so what you decide to carry with yourself is equally important. Your decisions will carve your path.
