About the Game

PRESENTATION

The Clockwork Requiem is a 2D classic old-school fantasy RPG in the vein of the old Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest.

In a world shattered by The Devastation, kingdoms crumble under famine and despair — all but one. Aetherforge, the realm of steam and steel, thrives where others wither.

When a band of survivors unearths a rare Ore said to power Aetherforge’s miraculous machines, they see it as their final hope for salvation. But as they journey to trade it, the party is drawn into a web of secrets, whispers of vanished ages, and a truth that could unmake what remains of their world.

In the ticking silence after ruin, every choice becomes part of The Clockwork Requiem.
