The Ballad Singer

The Ballad Singer is an RPG and graphic adventure set in a fantasy world shaped by your choices. You guide four heroes through interconnected but asymmetric stories, making decisions that affect how each tale unfolds and the heroes’ fates. The game contains up to 1,700 stories and 40 different endings, with every development and subplot narrated and illustrated.

Stories and choices

Choices can have lasting consequences through the Domino System: a decision made in the first minutes can affect events throughout the adventure. Each hero has a different narrative development, and replaying the game reveals other decision paths. The story includes over 400,000 words and 40 hours of narration, alongside more than 700 HD illustrations and over 40 musical tracks.

Heroes and death

During a single run with one character, you will never face two fights alike. There are three challenge levels, and powerful artefacts let you deceive death and repeat mortal choices. Death is part of the story rather than a game over: when the character you are playing dies, you continue as a new hero in the same story, following a different narrative path. The game includes 400 different detailed deaths.
