Overview
Description

Plume, the Battle Princess of Schwert, ventures into a kingdom overrun by monsters to avenge fallen soldiers and rescue her lost assistant. The story blends grief, heroism, and vibrant fantasy as she confronts towering beasts and massive siege battles. Recruit a diverse group of warriors, engage in fast‑paced skirmishes, and face colossal bosses in a colorful, high‑speed action RPG that mixes platforming, fighting, and role‑playing elements.

Zeliard is a classic side‑scrolling action RPG where Duke Garland battles through labyrinthine dungeons, collecting crests, keys, and the Nine Tears of Esmesanti to defeat the ancient demon Jashiin. The game blends platforming, sword combat, magic casting, and town‑based upgrades for a deep, retro fantasy experience.
