Heart Forth, Alicia is a Metroidvania RPG about a young wizard pursued by a terror in the sky.
On the night of your coming of age trial, the sky rains fire over your village, scorching everything in its path. Soon, you鈥檙e catapulted into an ongoing war between the wizards of the forest and the desert army of the West. Desperate to reunite with your loved ones, you embark on a journey across the landscapes of a beautiful but threatening world, sculpted by the pulsing violence of its past.
At this game's core is an ode to the classics. Remember the electrifying gameplay of Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, the devious dungeons of the Zelda series, and the rich, more serious narrative of Xenogears or Final Fantasy Tactics?
Heart Forth, Alicia brings a modern take on a beloved genre, combining the tight gameplay from the classic action platformers with an epic and serious narrative akin to the iconic '90s RPGs.
Combat
Rather than being a stereotypical spellcaster, Alicia is a warrior-wizard skilled with both weapons and magic alike. Thanks to the Wizard's Lace, her enchanted whip, she can choose not to always have to rely on magic to get the job done.Throughout the game, you'll be able to dramatically improve your abilities with the Lace and deliver progressively more devastating attacks as you acquire upgrades to increase its damage, range, apply further enchantments, unlock mighty special attacks, and more.
