Ashes of the Night

Great RPG from Wolfs Moon Studio. Lots of characters and back stories. Very good mood music as well. Took me 40 hours to play and was sorry when I finished. Highly recommended if you like RPG's

This is Wolf Moon Studio's very first RPG Maker epic--and it shows, in some ways, such as how at the beginning, you find yourself on a screen where people AND random encounters are scattered about, and there's no semblance of the usual town = safe area, wilderness = monsters, like you're used to in almost every RPG. BUT, that's only at the very beginning. As you go along, you _do_ start running into proper towns (the first one you encounter covers several screens, in fact!) and merchants standing in doorways eventually become proper houses and shops you can go inside of. Basically: Don't let the primitive style of the very early game throw you off--he basically seems to have learned how to code in RPG Maker AS he was making this, and the later game is the results that speak for themselves. Anyway, full-on positives now: The characters are the usual Wolf's Moon-style charming motley rogue's gallery, there's that signature "the party doesn't like each other and swears their heads off randomly" (John: "I sense a great evil..." Jewel: "Duh, Maduin is like three steps away." XD) thing, the game's story ends up being WAY more epic than I thought, the world is fairly large, and at the e…

This was a perfect introduction to this type of gaming for me. I'm hooked!!!

This is the first in a series of RPGs from Wolfs Moon Studios. Others have noted that while this game is fun and worth playing it's not as polished as the later titles. I can totally see that; the bones of a great RPG are there, but some improvements in areas such as pacing, UI, layout, etc. would really take this game up a level. No pun intended. It's an old-school style turn-based RPG with a ton of characters to mix and match. Way too many to use them all effectively, but it's always nice to have some choices and pick out your favorites to use. One of the weirdest parts were these huge open spaces you had to run through, with nothing at all in them. And they weren't tiny either, it took you some real world time just to move from one town or dungeon to the next. Not a deal-breaker, but just odd. But overall I had a lot of fun with it and am looking forward to trying more games by this developer. I played the entire game on Steam Deck with no issues.

ah wolfs moons studios first game.a thrill ride from start to finish.killer music great story fun gameplay loveable characters and their is alot of them later on in the game which let's you have the perfect party for your own play style.a great old school style rpg with wolfs moons studios fast catchy fluent game play that will want you to seek out every battle ,don't miss this one its worth the liw price hands down!

My last Wolf's Moon Studio game and it did not disappoint. This dev is great at making classic rpgs that offer many hours of gameplay and replay value. I am just sorry there are no more for me to play. But i am sure I will replay many of them again. Edit: I am so excited, I found 3 more of these games in my massive library, onto the next!!!
