About the Game

"Tropicalia: a Brazilian Game" is a tropical RPG based on Tupi-Guarani mythology. The first ever bRPG!

The game is a love letter to Super Nintendo RPGs, but set in an ancient South America – like you've never seen before!

It’s a classic turn-based RPG, but designed for a modern audience. So here’s what you’ll find:

  • Interactive battle system (Quick-Time Events);

  • Multiple map exploration abilities;

  • Playground Mode with no battles, just to enjoy the story;

You will play as Kaique, a brave Guarani warrior whose girlfriend, Kerana, is kidnapped by an evil god named Tau.

Tropicalia is all about gameplay. Dialogue is here to build a unique atmosphere. After all, it’s not every day you get to eat your enemies’ flesh (as a sign of respect)!

Collect materials to craft new items. Grind through fast-paced battles. Test your strategy against challenging bosses.

Hunt, fish, swim, dive, jump, and explore the jungle!

Here you WON’T find Dragons and Elves. But you will face Curupiras and Boitatas.

Are You Ready for This Tropical Adventure?
