About This Game

Celestian Tales: Old North revitalizes the classic turn-based Japanese RPG genre. Moving past standard clichés like a chosen one or a youth saving the world, the story targets a mature audience and challenges basic human morality. Players must decide if they will do whatever is necessary to survive, stand firm in their beliefs, or allow corruption for the sake of the greater good. As the first chapter in a planned trilogy, Old North features hand-painted visuals, expressive portraits, and a deep moral narrative seen through six different protagonists. Choices made here will influence future titles. Step into the shoes of a young noble training for knighthood, only to be caught in a war where internal foes are the most dangerous. With turn-based combat and extensive party customization, players can enjoy the game at their own pace. Key features include moral dilemmas, a unique story avoiding tropes, multiple story arcs with six playable characters, traditional RPG mechanics, beautiful hand-drawn art, an epic soundtrack, and the promise of future episodes affected by current decisions.
