A Giant Rises

From his earthen tomb emerges the Fallen God, the once-feared-now-flayed titan, Pallas. His impenetrable skin long since peeled away by the giant spider Bolesh, replaced by patient vindictiveness. Your arrival and evident thirst for loot presents a unique opportunity. A gift is forged! Will you take the Blade and embrace its power?

Challenge Event III

From October 10th until October 18th, Stone Story RPG will be running a 20% discount as well as our third Challenge Event - The Titans Trial. All players who participate in this event will receive The Blade of the Fallen God, a powerful Lost Item that further deepens your arsenals synergy.

To partake in the event:

[olist]

Begin the trial by visiting Pallas to wield the sword.

Activate the Blade's power to defeat foes. Earn a Smite buff for each foe defeated this way.

Change to weapons that apply debuffs. While you have Smite buffs, each time you apply a debuff extra damage is dealt and progress is made on the reward. [/olist] Explore possible combinations with other items and bring utter devastation to your enemies. At the end of the event, depending on your progress, youll receive an accordingly upgraded Bashing Shield as a reward. (Edit: To clarify some confusion, if you are unable to participate in the event, don't worry! The Lost Items promoted through Challenge Event III will simply be added to existing loot tables after it finishes, so you can grab them in-game once the event is done.)

Game Updates

In addition to the new Lost Item and Challenge Event, this update also brings:

Updated loot tables for all locations in order to provide rewards more aligned with time invested.
Heavy balance changes to Caves of Fear, Mushroom Forest, Temple and Rocky Plateau.
Changes to the stats for Swords and Crossbows as well as some abilities.

Fanart and ASCII/ANSI Art!

We continue to be impressed and astounded by the fantastic artwork our community has put out. Not only have we received some wonderful fanart of Stone Story RPG, weve also got several people in the community working within the ASCII and ANSI mediums! It truly is inspiring to see text art getting the love it deserves, and were happy to share these amazing pieces with all of you. These were some of our favorites from the Discord community, but there are plenty more works that these ASCII art wizards have cooked up. Stop by the server to check them out! -SSRPG Team

Stone Story - OST

Available DLCs

In a realm of perpetual evil, a single stone could change everything.

Stone Story is an RPG set in a dark and vile world. The game's fluid ascii art is painstakingly animated in plain text by a single insane game developer. The game has been in development since 2014 and is presently in closed beta testing. It features 8 locations to explore, 8 boss fights, mind-blowing ascii cutscenes and plenty of loot to discover.

The casual play contrasts with the retro visuals, providing a unique experience that blends nostalgia with modern design principles. One of the game's defining mechanics is that you have no direct control of the player character. You choose what items to equip, which location to visit and relax while an artificial intelligence does all the exploring, combat and looting. That doesn't mean this is an idle game. Potions and special abilities are maximized by good timing. Boss fights are intense and can keep you at the edge of your seat, requiring quick item swaps if the boss changes patterns. Additionally, an item crafting system allows you to combine otherwise disposable items--rewarding experimentation, giving you interesting choices and making full use of all the gathered loot.

Initial language support is English, Portuguese and Chinese. Further localization will be added based on regional demand.
