You will play as ‘Reid.’ You find yourself shipwrecked and alone in the world of ‘XEL.’ You have no memory of anything before ‘XEL’ and your only choice is to explore the world, dig up the secrets of ‘XEL,’ and figure out the mystery of your past.

While ‘XEL’ may be filled with natural beauty, it is also wrought with peril, both in the form of wild creatures, enemies, and natural hazards. With your sword and shield strapped to your back you set off into ‘XEL,’ exploring both the world above and the dark, dangerous dungeons beneath ‘XEL.’

‘XEL’ has an incredibly dark past, and it is your duty to uncover the truth that lies behind it. You must also do whatever it takes to figure out what happened in your past. There are clues all over ‘XEL’ that will help you to figure out your past.

The wildlife on ‘XEL’ will pose the occasional threat that needs to be eliminated. You should also watch your back for murderous robot minions that won’t hesitate to try and end you!

The game is played in a classic old-school top-down format, but with modern game mechanics for movement, combat, and all other features. Additionally, there are some RPG elements, including the crafting of weapons and gear, as well as leveling up and upgrading weapons and equipment as you progress through the game.

‘XEL’ is similar to ‘Legend of Zelda,’ but with a much stronger science fiction twist. The game is developed by ‘Tiny Roar’ and is coming to Steam during the second quarter of 2022.
