Description
About This Game
Elmwood, a bustling port town where past and future collide to make a beautiful city teeming with people and trade, is in dire need of your help. A coven of witches have cast an incomplete spell to shroud the city in nighttime darkness, and they need your blood to complete the ritual. Explore the region for items and abilities, seek information and refuge from townsfolk, delve into dungeon-like fortresses and ruins, and fight hoards of undead and elite members of the military who've allied with the coven for power.
Though Elmore begins his journey with just a sword, he's certainly no slouch on the battlefield. Master your weapon, obtain new items and abilities, and use the environment to give you an upper hand. You're going to need it.
If you need an easier or greater challenge, you can grab a spear or a broken-down musket with bayonet attachment at the start of your adventure.
Traverse an overworld that contains many towns, caves, random encounters, and stashed-away goodies and foes. There's a new challenge, friend, foe, or reward waiting around every corner. When in an action scene, use whatever you have at your disposal to uncover secrets, reach new heights, and gain insight to the world around you.
