About the Game

PRESENTATION


This is a 2D old-school RPG in the vein of Fantasy Heroes and Skyfall.

A thousand years ago, the country was divided between two kinds, those who were willing to follow principles of truth and justice and those who were not. The latter, were expelled to what is known as the "Outer Lands", beyond the walls of the Night Fortress. The Night Soldiers are the ones entrusted with the duty of keeping the Outers away, being the constant threat that they are, Pallas has his hands full. Having joined the Fortress out of his sense of duty towards protecting his country and most importantly to him, his family, he will soon realize that to truly protect them he will have to abandon it all.
There is a war coming.
