Arderico's Journey

Arderico's Journey is an interactive fiction adventure set in the fantasy kingdom of Antara. You are the sole heir to a noble family and estate, woken after a night of revelry to face an ultimatum: flee your home and leave it in the care of your deceitful uncle, or face arrest by the Capitano of the Guard for a crime you cannot remember.

The journey

You travel through Antara to seek justice and uncover the truth. Along the way, you evade pursuers, duel bandits, seek guidance at the Goddess's temple and unravel a scheme to clear your name. You can also choose to ride into the sunset with a newfound love, leaving your troubles behind.

Choices and challenges

Inspired by fantasy tabletop RPGs and classic gamebooks, the story unfolds like a book, with its course shaped by your decisions. Character interactions are dynamic, choices affect the storyline, and the content reacts to what you decide. Challenges involve dice rolls, with your chances based on previous decisions, and the story can reach multiple, significantly different endings.

Story presentation

The game includes over 50 illustrations made with generative art, alongside an atmospheric soundtrack composed by royalty-free artists. A save system lets you resume where you left off without losing progress.
