About this game

Voidsayer is a dark monster-taming jRPG, set in a world cursed by the Abyss. As its malevolent influence spreads and consumes the world, take on the role of a valiant warrior and fight back using over one hundred types of powerful tameable monsters. Refine their power with gear, special effects, and of course, evolve them into higher classes of monsters. Cross a vast interconnected world full of challenges and random events, all procedurally generated to ensure no two playthroughs are the same.

This is the classic turn-based jRPG monster tamer with multiple modern twists on the gameplay and an uncompromising approach to difficulty: Every fight is a challenge, every random event is a risk of crippling your team, and resources are extremely limited in a dark, cursed world where everything will eventually be consumed by the Abyss.



Or will it?

  • Dark, Complex Monster Taming: Each of the one hundred monsters you can catch is defined by a sophisticated stat system, which includes genetic predispositions and distinct personalities affecting their performance. Each can be further tuned and enhanced with carefully selected gear and other upgrades. They will need it, even if they evolve into higher forms.

  • Challenging Turn-Based Combat: Monsters are one side of the coin. The other is a large catalog of attack moves, effects, passives, combined with an easy to understand type system. Grass is beaten by fire, but fire is beaten by water - and it doesn't affect just damage dealt, but can dramatically change the course of battle. Strategic thinking and creative tactics are essential to victory.

  • Procedurally-Generated Levels Full of Twists: Every level is unique, with a generated map combining countless random encounters, pitched battles, and unforeseen events that can dramatically alter the gameplay. Your carefully-prepped and upgraded team might suddenly suffer injury - or trigger an abyssal distortion with severe consequences. Or... Maybe you'll encounter an opportunity that will require careful consideration of your options.

  • Bespoke, Powerful Bosses: A boss is not just a particularly powerful monster. Every boss is confronted at the end of a dedicated level, full of unique challenges reflecting their might. They range from tweaking the underlying gameplay slightly to completely upending gameplay you're used to, forcing your monsters to adapt - or die.

  • Settlement System: Hope is not yet completely snuffed out, as some human settlements still exist, strongholds of humanity against the encroaching Abyss. Your base of operations can be upgraded with materials brought back from each expedition, upgrading buildings to enhance their functionality or unlock new ways to tackle the Abyssal threat.
