The Trail

The Trail

About the Game

EVERY JOURNEY STARTS SMALL

Begin as a lone swordsman with nothing but your blade and a few supplies. Survive in a rebuilding world scarred by the Great Collapse, a catastrophic war that nearly wiped out humanity. As you explore, recruit allies, and grow in strength, you'll uncover the truth behind an ancient force known as APOCALYPSE.

That same evil is stirring once more...

EXPLORE WITHOUT LIMITS

The Overworld has a variety of geographical and political regions, filled with side quests and optional secrets.

  • JOURNEY through a diverse world, from the heart of the World Tree to the depths of Telluria Castle

  • VENTURE deep into dungeons and solve environmental puzzles

  • VISIT bustling settlements like Haven Harbor and Solus Valley

  • TRADE with merchants, take on quests, and uncover the hidden stories of each region

Open progression lets you tackle major objectives in any order you'd like!

FORM YOUR TEAM

You start with practically nothing. It's your responsibility to build up your faction.

  • RECRUIT new allies with unique skill sets

  • EQUIP hundreds of gear combinations to match your preferred playstyle

  • HARNESS elemental synergies and equipment combos that will crush your opponents

  • UPGRADE your favorite items using a wide variety of scrolls and other artifacts

  • EARN reputation with the Tellurian kingdom and unlock exclusive perks

Every step of your journey brings new opportunities to grow stronger. Will you settle for scraping by, or will you choose to thrive on your journey?

LOOT THE WORLD

Survival is difficult early on. Resources are scarce, and the smallest mistake can cost your life.

  • LOOT materials and rare treasure that will make your party stronger

  • FORAGE for ingredients and cook up tasty meals

  • WIELD legendary artifacts, like an enchanted coin that transforms you into a fire elemental, or a fabled scroll that wipes out all nearby enemies

  • FORGE powerful gear at the blacksmith's anvil, with upgrade progression that spans the entire game

  • MASTER the economy -- will you sell everything, or hoard any items you come across?

Once you've laid hands on something, it's yours. How much can you uncover?

TAKE UP ARMS

Engage in fast turn-based combat where every decision matters!

  • CAST powerful abilities to buff your party members and dish out damage

  • BOOST your attacks with a point-based system that rewards you for strategically managing your team

  • ADAPT to 10 elements that interact in various ways

  • SLAY 15+ bosses with unique twists and rewards

  • NO RANDOM ENCOUNTERS, so when it's time to fight, it won't feel like an ambush

The Trail features a wide variety of enemies, ranging from lowly slimes to literal gods that have descended from The Above. But if you're well-prepared, nearly any setback can be turned into an advantage!
