ASHES OF THE NIGHT

$9.99 only!!

This is the (chronologically) first game by Wolfs Moon Studios, after the well-received Wormskull, Verdungo and Angel Made.
https://www.aldorlea.org/wormskull.php
https://www.aldorlea.org/verdungo.php
https://www.aldorlea.org/angelmade.php

This developer is noteworthy for the excellent playtime of their games, this one clocking around 20 hours.

SUMMARY:

Ashes of the Night takes you on a fantasy adventure- filled with monsters, mayhem, and snarky banter.
Players will enjoy a wide variety of classes that allow them to maximize their gaming experience, along with a large list of gear for those who love
tweaking and tinkering their characters to a specific design.

Much work has been done to bring forth the things we enjoy and avoid the things that we all hate about RPG's. Minimal farming is required.
This is a story game, which does not concentrate heavily on grinding out mobs, but instead on character development and helping you get
attached to your favorite characters.

Heroes move through a tortured world encountering unique people with their own problems &hardships- a disaster caused by an ego maniac that calls himself "The Master". The adventure takes place with the goal to put this narcissist to rest.

ENJOY!

So far this game is great! Just bought it after demo. I'm just hoping save file is there. It's nice that you can go back into other areas to load up on supplies. The snarky comments are great also! Thanks for the release on a snowy day!!!

you can transfer your save into the full game
just use the way i described in previous games.

*open full game* make a save on *save slot 1 *
go into your files- delete that, then insert your demo slot save 1

load into full game- (it only say 30 seconds or whatever but it's a lie*
load it up- there's your demo save 1
save it and it will correct the time

there will be points of no return later- so please make sure you take advantage of the multiple save slots that are available to you!

glad you're enjoying it :D it was my first as stated- it's rough around the edges but the personality of the game shines through despite my lack of software skill hahaha

Ok, I'm at the far east tunnels with Baron and Robert...I think 3 or 4 floors down and I can't get down the ladder. I've left the floor and went back several times. It's the ladder down in the south middle of the tunnel. Is it meant to be unable to go down or what? Thanks.

it's meant to be inaccessible at this moment.
You need to go back into town and get the enchanter Sonnen to join your team

Spoiler to revive Reinford

Spoiler: show

Yes on the spoiler; past that already and thanks for the tip!

I'm enjoying it. Thanks Crawfors!

Maybe I'm old school but this is what I am used to (rough around the edges, but minimal bugs/typos, lots of character work). It's fun.

Only $10 and it'll be about 4x the playing time of my last purchase here for 2x the price.

Maybe your first game but you did great w/ the story. Maybe TOO many characters though

When is your next (new) one coming out?

by **crawfors** » Sat Feb 19, 2022 5:40 pm

Tommy thank you for your kind words

You can call me Shane!

After the fact I realized, WOW that's a lot of characters. Maybe just a few too many

lmao! You're right though.

But it was such fun game to make and there was tons of little hidden scenes in it.
Not sure if you ever found the hidden Boatscene with Reinford & Roberts father.
If you saw the scene with Yuka & Reinford alone in the INN.
(or Maduins past cutscene)

Yes! a lot of playtime. you should easily go over 20 hours in Ashes ( i think a lot of people were 25-30 range)
So after Ashes of the night I made Wormskull which directly relates to Ashes (you'll notice similar characters/ bosses)
SO those 2 games go together.
After that was Verdungo which is a stand alone that isn't a story narrative.
4th game was Angel Made which is story driven and gives you characters to develop and get attached too.

In a month or so I should have a new one released: it's called Barry of Wrath.
It's all but finished and i'm just checking it over for bugs the next few weeks to make sure everything runs smooth
It's over 20 hours of play as well with 11 playable characters.

Thanks for the info!

Yeah, I've bought/played your other games (purchased here) except for Ashes. I think I'm about 2/3 done - this is really like 3 games in one - thanks for making me unproductive at work and being lazy this weekend

Barry of Wrath? Must be a joke in there somewhere

by **crawfors** » Sat Feb 19, 2022 6:58 pm

LOL! there is. if you enjoyed the humor in Ashes,
you'll enjoy Barry.

For my own curiosity How many hours into Ashes are you and where are you in the story??

Hi crawfors,

Just finished the Demo and bought the full game. I am really enjoying the story and game play. I'll keep you posted how I go...

I'm going to get this game based upon the positive comments by Zulukat and MerryX.
