Azmar Quest is a text-based RPG adventure, with turn-based battles and old-school vibes. It's inspired by the fantasy settings of D&D, TTRPGs, and CRPGs, but in its own unique (and sometimes quirky) way. Choose your class from Warrior, Cleric, Warlock, or Archer, and play the main story. Decide your path through dialogues with multiple choices, and fight countless enemies! You can also fight in PvP and play Dungeons (online only) • Is this game for you? Do you know that feeling when you start with just one basic attack, like in the old games, and slowly unlock new skills that actually make you stronger? When finding an Armor just slightly better than the previous one, because it has +2 Stamina, feels like a real upgrade? Well, if you're after games that give you every skill from the start and shower you with legendary loot right away, then Azmar Quest probably isn't for you. But if you're not afraid to take on early enemies with just 1-2 abilities and no armor, and see real progress as you level up, then this may be exactly what you're looking for! • Main Features: - Single Player Story (playable offline too) - Turn Based Battles. - PvP battles (1v1 and 2v2) and Co-op Dungeons (online) • Gameplay: - Choose 1 of the 4 character classes available: Warrior, Cleric, Warlock or Archer, each with their own strategy. - Customize your character's build: 24 unique skills per class, 4 armor slots and 4 potion slots to create your build and enhance your character. - Follow Azmar's story through a dangerous fantasy world in this text based RPG adventure, make choices that matter with multiple endings, fight 100+ unique enemies in turn based battles, and reach level 30! The single player story should last at least 20 hours. • Does the game have anything else to offer? Of course it does! - Face new single player quests and challenges every day, fight in the 2v2 Arena with your companion, or fight in 3v3 party based battles in the Veiled Realm, and reach Mastery 100! - Play online in Dungeons, 1v1 or 2v2 battles, or play rated battles, and reach rank 1000 in PvP! • Developer Notes: - Azmar Quest is designed to be accessible and playable for blind users too, through the use of VoiceOver. - Azmar Quest is completely free to play, with no content locked behind paywalls or timers. It only has a few optional ads and optional in-app purchases. - The game is currently available in English only. I can't promise anything yet, but I'd like to add more languages in the future. - This is a one-person indie game project. I'm constantly developing and improving it. It just takes a lot of time, have patience. • Follow us or join the Azmar Quest community: - Discord: https://discord.gg/fTTMD6paRJ - Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/Azmar/ - Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/azmar.official - Twitter / X: https://twitter.com/s_games_apps - YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCEztAwbumYCfpHV11dw3__Q - TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@sgames.apps.mobile - Website: https://azmarquest.sevanstudio.eu/

Lulu ported a gargoyle from the Between. She had last seen a gargoyle when she was ten. Her grandmother had brought her to the forest, and helped her feed a pixie to the strange unmoving creature. This gargoyle, too, ate a pixie from Lulu’s careful hand. It sang a pure note of pleasure. Then it spoke into Lulu’s mind. At that moment the automatons attacked. Place your gargoyle army strategically to harvest pixies and defeat the hordes of attacking automatons and predators. Level your gargoyles, evolving them into more-powerful forms in three different evolution trees. Try a tanky Boulder for defense and a Black Mage for ranged vapor-type damage—or maybe experiment with the Lure ability of the multirow Manticore. In the main campaign, follow Lulu and her companion gargoyle Poe to discover the source of the automatons and how to stop them. Your gargoyle army stays with you as you proceed through each battle of the campaign. With your favorite evolutions and best battle tactics, you might make it to victory. FEATURES • 24 distinct enemies including vaporwolves, tetrapods, and lightbats • every gargoyle pup is different because of its randomly assigned perks (some rare!) • 22 in-game achievements • pause the combat at any time • save and load the game at any time • tutorial, game tips, and an “easy” difficulty setting are available if wanted • optional story mode • original music by Joel Roston • no in-app purchases or ads
