Press release:
USA – 7th August, 2024.
The San Francisco -based (the US) indie games developer Paper Sword Games are today very proud and happy to announce that their retro-like and wholesome turn-based RPG “Saveseeker“, is coming to PC via Steam in 2025.
Follow young Emmer Edette and her grumpy toy dragon sidekick Tippleton on an epic quest to thwart her former Hero father and save the world from an untimely end. Travel to distant lands to overwrite his save points, hone Emmer’s special time-traveling ability, and recruit a party of former bosses – each with their own unique abilities and motivations to face the Hero again!
But the path of a hero is far from an easy one. Various enemies lie in wait across six gorgeously animated worlds – from the gloomy dangers lurking in the autumnal Badwoods to aerial heights of the steampunk airship Aertemis – and you’ll need to strategize carefully to help Emmer and her friends succeed in turn-based combat.
“At its heart, Saveseeker blends an engaging story and endearing characters with narratively significant game mechanics,” said Paper Sword Games.
“Players have the chance to explore an RPG world after a famous hero has already traveled through it, and experience all the classic tropes in new deconstructed ways!”
A vibrant cast of characters await you in this heart-warming adventure, that’ll have you returning time and time again.
Key Features:
Embark on an epic quest: Start at the end and explore a rich narrative as Emmer attempts to stop her father from using his power for nefarious purposes
Forge unique connections: Five ex-bosses await Emmer, each with their own powerful abilities and stories to tell
Dynamic Turn Based Combat: Use Emmer’s unique time traveling ability to gain an edge over your foes, with a variety of tactics at your fingertips for every battle!
Uncover hidden secrets: Play minigames to unlock special equipment and hidden lore!
Saveseeker will launch on PC and Mac in 2025. You can wishlist the game now!
