Kristala is a dark fantasy ARPG featuring Sekiro-inspired combat, acrobatic parkour, and exploration to uncover a detailed story. Embark on a journey to join ranks with Ailur’s most elite warriors as you battle to master the ancient magic of the Sacred Six and uncover the source of a dark curse. Play as a catlike warrior from one of six clans, each with its own unique magic specialty. Choose your own style of combat: avoid damage by blocking, dashing/rolling, and deflecting attacks; combo light and heavy attacks; utilize multiple weapon abilities; and cast numerous spells. Your catlike character will be fully customizable via various Talent Trees, including an innovative Feline Skill tree that allows you to unlock and level a multitude of feline-related skills. A fledgling Anagativa warrior from one of six clans is called by the ancient, sacred Kristals to prove her worth. Beneath the spectral moonlight of Ailur—across desolate swamplands, overgrown forests, twisting caverns, and crumbling ruins long forgotten by time—a wicked sickness stirs. Are these mutated monstrosities all just part of the test...or could it be there’s something much more sinister at play? Kristala seamlessly fuses fast, ferocious combat with smart storytelling and rich, robust RPG mechanics. Uncover and upgrade a multitude of weapons, spells, and additional items as you explore a wild, wonder-filled world shrouded in both mystery and magic. Come, dear traveler...transport yourself from the confines of reality into the unbounding, unearthly expanse of the surreal.
