The Empire has invaded the peaceful land of Ilethia. It burns the towns, and those it does not kill, it drives to the hinterlands. It tears into the Earth, defiling the land for mineral resources, and in doing so, it releases a long-buried corruptive force. This corruption infests the land and its creatures, driving them into a blind rage and making them attack everything in sight. Ilethia becomes a violent and perilous place, where imperial sword and enraged beast alike threaten all who live.

Not even Ilethia's four Guardian deities are immune to the maddening effects of the corruption. The steadfast Minotaur, the fierce Gryphon, the wise Phoenix, and the kind Unicorn, once guides and protectors to the people, withdraw into their temples and twist them into hostile, dangerous gauntlets. If they can be defeated in battle, their corruption can be purged, and they will lend their powers to the one who freed them from its influence. It's a perilous journey, but if you can purify all four of the Guardians and gain their powers, you may just become strong enough to defeat the Imperial forces and restore peace to your home.

This is the demo version of the game. It includes one dungeon, the Phoenix Temple. A full release is planned for early 2026.

Current features in the demo:

  • Exciting battle and puzzle-solving gameplay
  • Bright, vivid 16-bit graphics
  • One fully explorable dungeon, the Phoenix Temple, including boss fight
  • Three Guardian abilities, used for navigation and combat
  • Collectable Emblems for health restoration and bragging rights
  • Autosave system
  • Gamepad support and customizable controls

Planned features for the full release:

  • Three additional Guardian dungeons with unique enemies, puzzles, and boss fights, plus a final dungeon
  • A fully navigable open overworld where Guardian abilities open up new parts of the world
  • A system where collected Emblems can be exchanged for health and weapon upgrades
  • Manual save system with multiple slots and time tracking for speedrunning
