Franzen

Franzen is a turn-based RPG set in Branzen, a world of Light and Dark, Flesh and Metal. You play as amateur Technomancers Franz and Lefsa Dellia, who investigate a spreading darkness and the threat it poses to their world.

The story of Branzen

Eighteen years ago, a terrible event known as “The Scream” tore open the sky, releasing ceaseless darkness that corrupts minds and bodies. Those it twists into monsters are called Daemons. Eighteen years after the “Decade of Darkness,” the tear still stains Branzen’s skies.

The siblings study this phenomenon to prove that it is expanding rapidly. Their investigation leads into the mysteries and dark secrets of Branzen, where the sun is setting on the world. The setting includes Akon, a massive city created by his holiness, Akanakon, and presented as a united, true empire—or so it seems.

Combat and progression

Combat is turn-based, with a snappy pace and a leveling system designed to avoid grinding. The story is short and fast-paced, and the world is filled with diverse enemies and items.

Explore and uncover

You travel through a vast world with varied cultures, meet party members who join your quest and navigate bureaucracy and corruption as you rise to power. You can also read about Branzen’s history and its many kings, while exploring the meaning of empathy.
