Quests
High replayability and an immersive world are two key aspects for us in ZEPHON. Quests directly enhance both.

All but one final quest will semi-randomly occur during a playthrough. At predetermined time intervals, your chosen leader and your actions in the worldanything from your discoveries, communications, combat or economywill determine which quest triggers.

At the core of each quest is a large illustration with custom ambient audio and meaningful player choices. Some choices may have an immediate consequence, but many will chain into further tasks.


Choices
Choices will reflect on the world, units and features on the map, your leader traits or what you can subsequently do and how you can interact with others. A number of choices will be locked behind special conditions, come with a cost, or be based on reputation as in other classic role-playing games.

To enforce the survival aspect, replayability and atmosphere, results wont be shown until a choice is made. Choices also come with a risk of failure. Surviving in the world of ZEPHON is hardno victory is guaranteed


The Dream




Design Commentary
You have a weird dream. Grotesque beings are feasting on your soul. What does it mean? Is it a warning? Or are the demons of your past coming for revenge? You can't explain it yourself and no one around you has a meaningful answer.

The ask options only appear if you've met the corresponding leader. And the Ask your sisters option is exclusive to when youre playing as the Furtive Tribunal.

A prime example of interacting with other NPC leaders of the world and getting answers based on who they are. The Fluid Anchorite might teach you how to handle your mind with more prowess. Otherwise ZEPHON might be able to decrypt the enigma. But if these polemicizing NPCs arent to your taste, asking the manic Hesitant Reaver is bound to help somehow surely?
