About The Chronicles of Eleos: The Hall of Azaron
The Chronicles of Eleos: The Hall of Azaron is a single-player RPG set in the large continent of Eleos. As an archaeologist wizard, you figure out the region’s secrets through exploration, dialogue, and turn-based combat. Developed by The Lazy White Cat Studio and released on PC in 2026, it leans into classic RPG tropes with a quirky twist. The game blends open-world discovery with structured quests, letting you interact with diverse factions while piecing together the lore of Azaron. Think of it as a slower-paced, story-driven adventure for fans of methodical character builds and world-building.
Gameplay
You’ll spend most of your time navigating a hex-grid map, managing resources like mana and stamina, and engaging in dialogue with NPCs to trigger quests. Combat is turn-based, requiring you to balance spellcasting, weapon skills, and item usage. Each region of Eleos has distinct enemies and puzzles, often tied to its culture. For example, solving a desert temple’s riddle might require deciphering ancient runes. Character progression hinges on a branching skill tree, where choices like prioritizing fire magic or alchemy directly impact late-game options. Sessions often last 2, 3 hours, with frequent save points but no permadeath.
What Players Think
The PlayPile community gives it a 78% positive rating, with 62% of players completing the main story in 25, 30 hours. Average playtime is 28 hours, and 43% of users hit the 100% completion milestone. Community moods are split: 58% “Nostalgic” and 31% “Curious,” but 11% call it “Tedious.” Reviewers praise the world design (“Eleos feels alive, even with clunky UI”) but criticize repetitive combat mechanics. There are 37 achievements, including rare ones like “Azaron’s Best Kept Secret” (5.2% completion). Critics on Metacritic average a 72, citing strong writing but technical hiccups.
PlayPile's Take
It’s a solid pick for RPG fans who enjoy slow-burn narratives and deep skill customization. The $39.99 price tag is fair for the content, though the grind-heavy combat may test patience. With 10+ hours to 100% completion, it’s worth buying if you value niche lore and character-driven stories. Skip if you prefer fast-paced action or streamlined experiences. The achievements add replayability, but don’t expect fresh mechanics here.
