The Ardron Universe

About the Game

8 Games.
One Universe.
One Purchase.

Ardron Universe is a collection of eight games telling different stories across the same world.

Different genres.
Different characters.
Different places.
Sometimes completely different eras.

Some games are story-heavy.
Some are systems-heavy.
Some are multiplayer.
Some are rhythm games for some fucking reason.

You don't have to like all of them.

Find the ones that click.
You get the rest anyway. 🤷

Choices made in one game can unlock things in another. Characters and events overlap. Something you see in one story might completely change how you understand another.

And if you don't want to play an entire genre just to unlock something?

There's a skip. 👍

I'm not holding your save file hostage because you don't like card games.

Is Ardron?

Ardron is a universe shaped by gods, magic, war, and the people stuck living with the consequences.

There are heroes.

There are villains.

The problem is that everyone tends to disagree about who is who.

There isn't always a good choice.
There isn't always a bad choice.

Sometimes there are just choices.

And they have consequences.

You might save someone and make everything worse.
You might destroy something for all the right reasons.
You might be remembered as a hero.

You might not be remembered at all.

And just because you're the hero in one story doesn't mean you aren't the reason someone needs a hero in another.

Each game gives you another piece of that history.

Play one. Play all eight. Play them completely out of order.

You'll figure it out. :D

See the DLC pages for more in depth Information

Speaking of ^ this line. 
The DLC will all be FREE. and automatically included with the game.
They literally only have pages so I can go into more depth per game :) (there MIGHT be spoilers)

[Ashes Of Arcanum] - EImon

Genre: Virtual Tabletop RPG

The war is over.

That's about where the good news ends.

Ardron survived ten thousand years of war between gods, but "survived" is doing a lot of work in that sentence.

Now it's your turn.

Create a character. Pick a class. Learn spells. Explore what's left. Gather some friends and tell your own stories in the ashes of everybody else's.

Ashes of Arcanum is a virtual tabletop RPG built around giving you the tools to play in Ardron rather than telling you exactly what you're supposed to do there.

The world is already a mess.

What happens next is your problem.

Take a chance.

Roll the die.

[Daemon Protocol] - Icolass

Genre: Discord based MMORPG

Log in.

Pick a direction.

Try not to die.

Daemon Protocol is a multiplayer RPG built around exploring Icolass, scavenging for resources, building your character, fighting creatures, and occasionally realizing that whatever you just stumbled into would be considerably easier if you had brought friends.

Combat is tactical. Resources matter. Builds matter.

So do the other people wandering around the world with you.

Go exploring. Make things. Trade things. Kill things.

You know.

Community. Camaraderie, and another C word I can't think of.... 

[Arcane Titans] - Void

Genre: Trading Card Game

Before mortals fought over Ardron, there were things much older playing games of their own.

Two Elder Primordials are drifting through the Void.

They're bored.

So they decide to play a card game.

That's it. That's the lore.

Build a deck from the creatures, people, gods, spells, and assorted nonsense of Ardron, then use it to beat the shit out of someone else's deck.

Make something clever.

Make something stupid.

Find an interaction that absolutely should not work, discover that it does, and build your entire deck around it.

Why?

Because card games are fun.

[Graces Lament] -Yumalon

Genre: 2D Narrative Action

Freedin's father went to war.

He didn't come home.

That was only the beginning.

Grace's Lament follows Freedin during the opening years of a war that will eventually consume Ardron for ten thousand years.

Fight, explore, and make choices as his life becomes tangled in something much larger than himself.

There is no perfect route through it.

Helping someone can hurt somebody else.
Doing the "right" thing can have horrible consequences.

You still have to choose.

Goooooood luck with that.

[Rimalts Recollection] - Vidulyn

Genre: 2D Action / Stealth Game

Rimalt is an assassin.

His parents are spies.

Turns out those professions work pretty well together.

Rimalt's Recollection follows a Kattari assassin traveling through Yumalon with one goal: find his grandfather and get revenge.

But finding someone who doesn't want to be found isn't as simple as following a trail.

Gather information. Follow leads. Use intelligence collected by Rimalt and his allies to track your target across Yumalon.

Meanwhile, rival ninja clans have their own business in the realm, and they aren't particularly interested in staying out of yours.

Navigate their territory. Defend yourself when necessary. Figure out who knows what you need to know.

You're an assassin.

You know who your target is.

Finding him is the hard part.

[Ashbound] - Grimlowe

Genre: Top-Down RPG

History remembers gods.

Kings.

Generals.

Heroes.

History is considerably worse at remembering everyone else.

Ashbound Chronicles follows two creatures from Grimlowe who, through circumstances neither of them asked for, find themselves wandering through a world at war.

Travel across the realms. Fight creatures considerably more important than you are. Meet the people history bothered writing down.

Then keep going.

Not everyone who changes the world gets a statue.

Some don't even leave behind a name.

[Echos of Aria] - Sostrum

Genre: Rhythm Game / Narrative Game

Sometimes all you need is a song to pull you through the bad times. 

Echoes of Aria follows a masked young outcast with nowhere to go and very little left to lose.

Abandoned as a child and left to survive on the streets, an unlikely friendship gives him something he hasn't had in a long time: someone else to look after.

Surviving is one thing.

Feeding two mouths is another.

Perform tricks. Learn songs. Play your melodica for crowds, earn enough to eat, and travel from town to town alongside a growing family.

Not everyone you meet deserves your kindness.

Luckily, your new friends are very good at stealing things.

Play music. Put on a show. Make some coin. Decide who deserves a little help, and who perhaps deserves to discover that their coin purse has mysteriously disappeared.

Just keep the mask on, and keep performing.

[Verdant Thesis] - Elusia

Genre: Spell Creation Game

Magic is complicated.

Someone has to figure out how it works.

Verdant Thesis follows the Fey of Elusia as they research Green Mana and develop new offensive magic for a world increasingly consumed by war.

Study ingredients. Experiment with their properties. Combine concepts. Create spells.

Try to understand why they work instead of simply accepting that they do.

That's it.

It's a game about magical research.

Everything is perfectly normal.

There is absolutely nothing else going on.

Promise.
