Cris Tales

Cris Tales is a role-playing game about Crisbell, a newly awakened Time Mage, and her companions as they travel across Crystallis and its four Kingdoms to stop the Time Empress and rewrite the world's future. You can see the past, present and future simultaneously on one screen: learn from the past, act in the present and watch your choices reshape the future and affect the people you meet.

The world and its people

Crisbell's journey takes her through a handcrafted, dark fairytale world, from the shining kingdom of Crystallis to the slums of Saint Clarity. You travel by airship or boat and encounter regions, enemies and NPCs whose branching pasts and futures are shown in hand-drawn 2D art animated frame by frame. The story follows the Empress's complex plan to destroy the world, and you recruit allies with their own stories and skills, including Matias the Frog and Willhelm the Child Mage.

Choices through time

Your choices have far-reaching consequences for the people Crisbell meets and dynamically change the world throughout the journey. Crisbell's time powers also let you alter the reality of fights by sending enemies into the past or future. You can synchronize attacks to strengthen group abilities, and timing your attacks and defenses is central to making the most of your party in turn-based combat.

A branching adventure

The game combines branching stories, strategic combat and exploration across an expansive world, with more than 20 hours of gameplay. As you uncover the Empress's plans and recruit allies, your choices shape the journey toward the True Ending.
