Who we are

Our mission is to craft games that spark joy and wonder—created with love by RPG enthusiasts, for anyone eager to immerse themselves in a unique and captivating world.

Game Summary

The story so far and as if time has stopped...

The story begins in the quiet Catoch'orian Inn, where Melissa urgently declares that the Great Evil has returned. Her words, however, are met with laughter and disbelief—after all, the “Great Evil” is nothing but an old tale, long forgotten by the elves.

Yet as mirth resumed and goblets were raised anew, four young elves felt a stirring unease. Melissa's words awakened a shadow within them—and perchance, a pang of guilt. For but days earlier, they had trespassed into a forbidden cave, meddling with crystals of strange and arcane nature. Might their folly have roused a dread that slumbered deep?

Bound by secrecy and driven by dread, they resolved to seek the truth. Could it be that this forgotten Evil walks once more among the living? The tranquil isle may no longer be the haven the carefree elves believe it to be...

Dialogue is no mere speech—it is the thread of fate, shaping the course of action with every word spoken. Dungeons deep and perilous await the bold, and evil bosses stand guard, with a dark sovereign whose will bends the realm, stirring in the dark beyond.
