Drova: Forsaken Kin

About

Drova Forsaken Kin is a pixel art role-playing game that leans heavily into old school mechanics. You'll manage a party of characters with distinct abilities navigating a world filled with tough battles and branching choices. Combat is turn-based but emphasizes positioning and status effects, while exploration rewards careful resource management. The story centers on a fractured family seeking redemption, with dialogue options that shape relationships and outcomes. The game stands out for its punishing difficulty curve and intricate world design. Just2D's attention to detail in enemy AI and environment storytelling echoes the work of 16-bit era JRPGs. Early access players on Discord report average 20-30 hour playthroughs with multiple endings. Available on PC consoles and LinuxMac, it releases in October 2024 with no online components.
