AurumDust
Brand's website: AurumDustAurumDust is an independent development studio founded in 2016, which focuses primarily on developing narrative-driven RPGs, tactical strategy games and card games. The studio has gained attention for its emphasis on sophisticated storytelling, moral choices and original fantasy worlds.
Its greatest success has come with the Ash of Gods series. The first instalment, Ash of Gods: Redemption, combines turn-based combat, collectible card mechanics and a story in which the player’s decisions have a real impact on the fate of the world and individual characters. The game has often been compared to the cult series The Banner Saga, whilst also introducing its own gameplay systems and a unique art style.
This success was followed by further titles, Ash of Gods: Arena and Ash of Gods: The Way, which expand the familiar fantasy world with new stories, more sophisticated tactical combat and deeper strategic options. The studio has also created the adventure game The Witch’s Cauldron, which focuses on exploration, puzzle-solving and atmospheric storytelling.
AurumDust is known for its hand-drawn graphics, cinematic dialogue and emphasis on player choice. Every decision can influence the course of the story, relationships between characters and the game’s ending, which significantly increases replayability.
Thanks to the Ash of Gods series, AurumDust has built a strong reputation amongst fans of tactical RPGs and narrative-driven games. Their titles are released on PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo Switch and PC, appealing to players seeking a deep narrative and strategic gameplay.
