The Story
The Queen’s evergrowing talking sword is lost in a faraway land. Luckily, you showed up to wield it back to the castle.You do know how to swing a sword, right? RIGHT?!
Slash Quest puts you in the shoes of Shepherd, an unlikely knight with a big heart, wielding an even bigger weapon — Swordie! — and absolutely zero skills. Together, they must journey through exotic lands, battling nasty creatures, solving puzzles, and making lovely friends along the way to reunite Swordie (the royal talking sword) with its rightful owner, the Queen.
Get ready to slice and dice with simple yet unconventional controls where the sword controls the hero and not the other way around. Slash Quest introduces unique gameplay mechanics where Swordie grows bigger with every enemy it slays, shaping your journey through puzzles, battles, and beyond.
Express your style with over 50 collectable cosmetic items for Shep and Swordie — after all, a royal weapon must also be stylish! From a heroic look to a baby shark costume, the customization options let you tailor every quest to your unique taste.
