The story
A groundbreaking local co-op RPG for 1-4 players. An ancient, malevolent force stirs within the depths of the Eon Altar, and it’s up to YOU to stop it! Eon Altar combines nail-biting action and turn-based tactical combat with an epic story of friendship, destiny and betrayal. In Eon Altar, each player uses their smartphone as a private screen to see their motivations, thoughts and innermost secrets. Your mobile device also offers you lines of dialogues to read out loud—hopefully in your own eccentric performance you've developed for your character. Your actions. Your game. Your way. You play your character the way you want it. Succeed together, or die alone. With one Steam purchase, up to four players can access the game with our FREE Controller App, available for iOS and Android. Each player can use the Controller App to level up their hero, receive secret quests, consult secret thoughts, and choose lines of dialogues.
What it’s like
Bright, hand-painted fantasy dungeons with chunky cartoon proportions, glowing runes and warm torchlight spilling across stone, the whole thing sitting on a playful, slightly wonky storybook charm. The sound leans on a bouncy orchestral-fantasy score and comic clatter of combat, with spoken lines read aloud around the table, so the room fills with voices doing silly accents. Vibe: boisterous, goofy adventure with a sly edge of betrayal. It suits a game night with friends on a couch, the kind where someone is always hamming up a line. Pacing is turn-based and deliberate, punctuated by sudden flashes of real-time action, and the mood swings between light banter and tense standoffs. Heroes' arcs turn on secret motives: allies who may not be what they seem, and a shared quest that can tip into rivalry. Intensity is low to moderate: stylised fantasy combat with cartoon violence, no gore, and tension that comes from social deception rather than horror. Made for groups who want a shared, talkative tabletop-style night, and for players who enjoy playing a character loudly.
