About Relics of the Lost Age

✦ AI summary

Relics of the Lost Age is a 350,000-word interactive adventure novel where you play a 1930s archaeologist racing across the globe to find six ancient magical artifacts before the Nazis weaponize them. Your choices shape the story as you romance diverse companions, battle unforgettable villains, and decide the fate of world-altering relics across deserts, jungles, and criminal underworlds.

The Nazis are on the trail of six ancient magical artifacts powerful enough to crush all opposition and conquer the world. But they didn’t take one thing into account: you.

Relics of the Lost Age is a swashbuckling 350,000 word interactive adventure novel written by James Shaw, where your choices control the story. It’s entirely text-based, without graphics or sound effects, and fueled by the vast, unstoppable power of your imagination.

It started out as a routine dig in Palestine. But soon you find yourself racing across the desert on a quest to track down a fabled ancient relic before the Nazis can get their hands on it. And that’s just the beginning. The Third Reich are mobilizing right across the globe, on the hunt for mysterious ancient Relics of Power, objects which could put unimaginable supernatural forces into the hands of the armies of darkness. And the only thing standing in their way is you.
Step into the weathered boots of a swashbuckling 1930s archaeologist and strap in for a wild ride around the globe, finding adventure, romance, and mystery at every turn. Do you have what it takes to locate the Relics, vanquish your foes and save the world from a thousand years of darkness?
  • Play as male, female, or non-binary; gay, straight, bi, poly, or asexual.
  • Find romance with a fearless explorer, an exiled prince, a passionate archaeologist, or a tormented spy.
  • Take on a rogue’s gallery of memorable and despicable villains, including the Nazis, the mafia, Triads, Klansmen, renegade soldiers, and ruthless treasure-hunters.
  • Travel widely in a lovingly recreated 1930s world, exploring the deserts of Palestine, the high passes of Tibet, the noxious politics of Louisiana, the jungles of Congo, London’s cut-throat art-crime scene, and Hong Kong’s deadly Triad underworld.
  • Experience epic gunfights, visceral brawls, and wild stunts in vintage vehicles.
  • Uncover a sinister secret lost for millennia.
  • Give priceless historical treasures to their true owners, sell them to the highest bidder, or decide that they belong in a museum.

Archaeology Just Got A Whole Lot More Exciting.

About halfway through this and am enjoying the story and characters which are well written. Am a fan of the Indiana Jones films and the 1930/40s era so a lot to like here for me. The only downside is the overemphasising of modern issues and attitudes in what is a period piece that for me do not really fit with the time period or story. I am enjoying it enough that I will finish reading and then move on to the next in the series.

This story is well written and there's lots of adventure. But I would have enjoyed this more if the stat checks were less demanding and relentlessly punishing. The romance is barely there, the author instead preferring to focus on archaeology and historical facts, which are well-researched. Personally, I wouldn't recc this but it is one of the better Hosted Games I've read.

The game, for me atleast has a critical error in which no matter what i do cannot load a file. Thus i cant play.
Recommended Nov 16, 2025
I love this immensely and highly recommend it! My only real complaint is that you cannot set your own surname? Which I still don't understand why not? Why can't I make Indiana Jones or Allan Quatermain or Jake Cutter, and instead have to settle for Indiana Spillane, Allan Spillane, or Jake Spillane? What's worse is that "Spillane" is kind of a bad surname, ngl But hey, ya can still punch nazis in the face, so 10/10
Recommended Oct 23, 2024
Fantastic stuff! I played some of the series while it was on dashingdon, and I adore the detail and love put into it. The passion really shows and inspires me to wanna make my own game
Not recommended Jul 5, 2023
It's a very harsh game that weighs hard on your previous choices without warning. choose to shoot someone: you're only good at guns. the puzzles are also really convoluted and not fun.

Games like Black Myth Wukong have to replace the fight, not the setting: the deflect window, the transformations, the one-more-try pull. These do, from Ashina to Tsushima.
