—An ode to the wonder of early Final Fantasy. In the world of Relm, two unlikely heroes are bound together as the corrupting Black Essence spreads across the land. Face the darkness through a thoughtful, tactical combat system built on timing and strategy.
The Tale of Relm is a turn-based fantasy RPG inspired by the golden age of the FF series. Lead a unique cast of heroes through an exciting, story-rich adventure in a hand-crafted world.

In the mysterious world of Relm, where ancient magic and shadowy forces collide, two unlikely heroes are bound by fate. Princess Celes, awakening to a powerful legacy, and Edge, a boy who escaped the Crudo program, find their destinies intertwined as they confront the corrupting Black Essence.

From quiet villages to forgotten temples, exploration is at the heart of Relm.
Talk to villagers, uncover secrets, solve puzzles inspired by early Zelda games, and piece together the lore of a world on the edge of collapse.
Shops, NPCs, and hidden clues breathe life into every corner.
