"The Epic of Gilgamesh" is one of the oldest known recorded myths. For the first time in history, the epic is retold as a role-playing game using Ancient Sumerian scholar Danny P. Jackson's translation and artwork from the popular Final Fantasy video game series.
Features:
- a timeless story about coming to terms with the human condition
- graphics and music from Final Fantasy IV-VI and the rpgvx RTP
- a unique "sacrifice system" that allows player's to exchange spoils from battle for equipment and skill upgrades
- learn factoids about the real Ancient Sumer and experience their stories as never told before
- several optional bosses and side quests with more under developments
- more than 200 maps to explore
- 3.5 - 5.5 hours of gameplay
Main Characters (see http://www.gilgameshgame.com/index.php/about/characters/):
Gilgamesh:Gilgamesh is the king of Uruk, the largest city in the region of Sumer. His unparalleled strength and lack of fear have made his name known throughout the continent. While his subjects respect him for these qulities, he has recently begun to abuse his power
Enkidu:The villagers of Uruk call up to the Annunaki, the seven highest gods who watch over Sumer, to help them. They decide to send Gilgamesh a companion, Enkidu, a creature who is neither human nor beast. But is Enkidu a friend or foe? Their meeting is just the begging of a story which necessitated the invention of the word "epic". Transverse the Great Desert, pillage the Cedar Forest, descend to the Netherworld, climb the mountain to the highest eagle's nest, meet the unisex scorpion people and finally visit Dilmun, the home of the gods!

I wanted to capture the feel of old school Final Fantasy, which is why I went with chibi sprites. |
