Drova – Forsaken Kin

Drova – Forsaken Kin is a pixel art Action-RPG drawing on grim dark genre classics and Celtic mythology. Players explore a handcrafted open world, starting with no possessions or reputation, and must study their surroundings, complete tasks, trade, gather materials and craft equipment to progress.

The game centres on a conflict stemming from a society that learned to capture and rule over nature spirits once controlled by a fallen empire. Players must choose to join one of two factions, each with distinct values and goals, a decision that affects the story and its outcome. Combat uses a flow-based system incorporating combos and multiple weapon types, and players can learn abilities from various teachers encountered throughout the world, allowing for different playstyles.

Key features include free navigation through a dynamic, handcrafted open world, a story that adapts based on player choices and dialogue, faction selection that shapes long-term gameplay, and a combat system built around chaining moves and mastering different weapons and abilities.
