Exile Saga - A new old-style indie RPG
Exile Saga made me think about the good Ol´ Jrpg days. Back when Jrpg games actually didn't suck.
Less than a hour ago the folks at Meraki Games contacted us. Because they are hard at work with their indie RPG game "Exile Saga" (which looks and feels like a mix of old school Final Fantasy, Shining Force and Chrono Trigger). And they really need all the help they can get at the moment. Because Exile Saga won´t be able to reach it´s 20,000 CAD goal on Kickstarter (the game are 8% funded at the moment), without our help.
So i promised that i would make a video and spread the word about Exile Saga. And i intend to keep that promise (like always). So keep an eye open for our first Exile Saga video people! =)

About Exile Saga:
A vast world filled with danger and deceit. Ancient puzzles that are in need of solving. Countless hordes that are dying to be defeated. Meraki Games presents to you; Exile Saga. Once, we were free... On October 3rd of 2014, Meraki Games launches its Kickstarter campaign for Exile Saga - the new, old-style Indie jRPG. Exile Saga is a new old-style indie Role Playing Game (RPG) with elements of an adventure game.
The game has a lot of classic and custom features. Among them are: a customized, overhead, action battle system, skill trees, magic, swords and guns, epic dungeons and an intricate plot, an original soundtrack and much more. Moving through a world in which demonic forces have taken over and enslaved much of humanity, you unravel mysteries, uncover secrets, and share the fate of our three young heroes.
“For an alpha state, the game is very well polished. We look forward to it’s final release when all of it’s shortcomings shall be ironed out. This is a worthy candidate for Steam early access so look out for it guys!” - The Masquerader Gaming Network blog, WordPress, 19/5/14 Exile Saga has promising traditional RPG aspects such as leveling, different classes, challenging puzzles, and intense combat.
The encounters are far from random; enemies wander the world seeking vulnerable (and tasty) morsels and they will often chase you down. In a dangerous wilderness in what remains of the world you go dungeon crawling with only a flashlight to lead you through the danger. Some encounters need to be fought, other times encounters require sneaking past. Many challenges await you outside the safety of the monastery where the story begins. The gamer experiences the world and battles many foes through the eyes of three young adventurers; Aedan, Mira and Sienna.
You stand with them as they fight the overwhelming Empire of Nera, a demonic empire who invaded and conquered the entire world, and enslaved or destroyed all but the last remaining bastions of humanity. In battle it is possible to switch between the characters of the party, allowing the player to have close control over the real time combat.
Sometimes it’ll be needed to have ranged offensive, sometimes close combat and sometimes it’ll be best to play a healer for a while. While not controlling the other characters you can set them up to use particular abilities, further customizing the combat. Aside from all having their own specialties, the characters also have own skill trees with which it is possible to customize even more. This makes for easy, comfortable gaming, exactly to the player’s specific preference.
