Short description
Brain may outdo brawn, but in the hands of a destined hero who has neither brain nor brawn...a nice spellbook can outdo both. Play as Feory, a stranded fisherman, and guide him through a mysterious island through solving puzzles, vanquishing deadly monsters, saving a threatened race, and most importantly finally getting home.
About this game
The Heartland Saga is a 2d action rpg game with an unusual spellcasting mechanic. In this dark comedy/satirical tale, you play as a clumsy scrawny sailor who found himself stranded on an island after capsizing his ship. After your sailor has lost all hope of escape, he awakes to find people on his shore. But in order to get to safety, he must help the rescuers with a special task. Being a person with no physical prowess, you must survive using nothing but a spellbook to fend off the hordes of evil creatures that inhabit the island. The game features everything that you'd see in every classic rpg such as puzzles, dungeon crawling, and combat, but takes the opportunity to poke fun at rpgs by making an effort to not take itself too seriously. Featuring a hint of hopelessness, goofy side-comments, silly easter eggs, and more, the game tries to form it's own genre of dark comedy out of a classic rpg genre. In a fantasy world an Empire of men rule the majority of the land. This empire has become corrupt over time, leading it into a dark age. In order to keep their subjects loyal and faithful despite the famine and economic collapse that has struck the land, the royalty diverted the blame to the race of Elves, blaming their magic for causing all evils. The soldiers and citizens alike turn on the Elves leading to mass slaughter and imprisonment. At first the Elves try to put up a defense, but after finding themselves heavily outnumbered, they are forced to flee for their homeland; a mysterious island off the western coast of the mainland. With their fearless prince to lead them, the race hopes the refuge of this island will save them. But since they deserted that island many generations ago, the Elves know little of what dangers may lie within...all that was known was from the ancient phrase, "From the Island, within, the elements come for your kin" During a majority of this conflict our protagonist, Feory, has been experiencing quite a different world. During a fishing trip, our clumsy fisherman capsized his boat leading to what he thought was his doom. Fortunately (In a way) Feory woke up, face down and boat-less on a beach. This beach was no ordinary beach. It had a…
