Gataela

Description

A decade ago a civil war tore across the Kingdom. Zack, an orphan, embarks on a mission to improve his loved ones' lives. Uncover schemes, investigate mysteries, and debate the citizens and nobles of Gataela! Will he discover hidden truths that threaten to rip apart the nation all over again?

History

Gataela is an RPG inspired by our love of the Tales series, the aesthetics of Victorian Steampunk, and the desire to give NPCs a greater role than background flavour text. We wanted to create a game that was focused on the everyday, where the average person can make a change, and where the goal is not to save the world, but to make a difference in the place you call home. Gatalea is a game about communication, and the power of the individual.
