SANDS OF SODIS

A vicious disease engulfs the war-torn isle of Falcia, plunging its victims into what seems to be a shared delirium. Fate entwines a crippled Church-Guard with a Fallen Angel, and together they resolve to face the new threat by any and all means - despite the quickly-faltering certainty in what it is that they face.

🂾 Challenging party-based IP combat, warped by obscure deck-building mechanics

🂾 A hand-crafted world that speaks in riddles

🂾 Everything-is-a-resource resource management

🂾 Nuanced character interaction, with open-ended choices and consequences

Imprisoned in development for years, SANDS OF SODIS was to capture the atmosphere of the classic JRPG - in everything but a departure from high-fantasy. It's a shame that the game was abruptly cancelled by it's anonymous developer, for reasons unknown, never to be released.

You make the wise decision to study the tattered pages enclosed within... an instruction manual?

Resources, class resources included, are scarce. Collect what little reagents and materials you can find to craft consumables, and manage your small inventory wisely. You must apply the same conduct to ability usage in battle.

IP combat returns. Control the tide of battle by interrupting enemy actions, while using status effects or critical damage to juggle turn order and buy time. Sound familiar? Combat extends into exploration: use stealth to avoid dangerous enemies, or pacify them with well-aimed projectiles, and your resources are sure to last you longer.

Make questionable alliances, bringing varied playstyles to the table. Tailor your company to fill specialized roles, and you may gain access to deeper layers of strategic advantage in battle. Consider the Requests of Falcia's people, and they may give due reward. Your companion also happens to have a request of his own: honor his Hunt.

Find the REMNANTS OF SODIS that have emerged across Falcia, each hidden within a daedal Sanctum. With each, unlock a unique set of skills and modifiers that can be progressed with usage and experience, as well as an essential function in map exploration. Notice your THOUGHTS suspended before you; defy the cruel hand dealt to you through skillful play... but forget not that the troubled mind is a double-edged sword.
