Ealdorlight is a single player RPG set in a medieval kingdom where magic is rare and mysterious. You discover at the beginning of the game that you were found lost as a small child, and the identity of your real family is unknown.
Soon after, you meet the Ealdorlight, a legendary supernatural being not seen for centuries, who tells of darkness in the kingdom and invites you to take the King's place.
You must leave your adopted home and travel the land, gaining connections, title and influence in order to discover your real family, and to win the throne: through honour, intrigue, or force.
The game has turn-based combat with a realistic damage system that models bones, muscles and organs. It also procedurally generates an new kingdom history, society and people every game. Each time you play you'll meet different characters with different backstories.
Quote:
- 3D isometric role-playing in a low fantasy medieval world that's different every game.
- Procedurally generated characters, backstory, society, history, weapons, armour, towns and villages.
- Turn based rogue like combat, which tells a desperate life-and-death story each time.
- Discover your real family and unique history to learn your identity and unlock your own skills and abilities.
- Uncover the past of those you meet and gain power over them. Choose to recruit commoners and nobles to your side via influence, bribery or blackmail.
- Research your weapons and armour to understand their stories and access their power and potential.
- Fight wild creatures, bandits, soldiers and local nobility who get in your way.
- Earn access to the court of the current King and build a strategy to overthrow him. Convince his nobles to oust him through moral argument, reveal his deepest secrets and arrange a revolt, or organise his untimely death, and replace one tyrant with another...
- Travel around doing good or evil, and become famed or feared. The game features an open quest structure where hundreds of hand-crafted quests types are overlaid onto the procedurally generated kingdom. There is no linear path through the game and no requirement to complete quests.
- Built on foundations of Chris Parsons' previous game Sol Trader, but an entirely new game.
- "Ealdorlight" is written using Unreal Engine 4, and will launch on PC, Mac and Linux with console platforms planned.
