Rise of The Third Power

Rise of the Third Power is a love letter to the glory days of console RPGs, with modern conveniences like autosave and a blend of the best elements of Japanese and Western gameplay and writing. Experience this fusion of East and West, old and new in a game that is set to surpass Stegosoft Games’ previous work in every way!

• STORY ENGINE – Join a team of eight people, each with their own unique ambitions, outlook and personality, as they embark on a suicide mission to overthrow the Emperor of Arcadia, Dimitri Noraskov. A mix of humor, drama and tragedy awaits players as they navigate the treacherous world of Rin.

   

• POLITICAL INTRIGUE – While the world of Rin recovers from the Great War, the balance of power remains greatly disrupted and the power vacuum is still waiting to be filled. The player will be hindered and aided by schemers, liars, and traitors as everything moves towards a repeat of the greatest war in human history.

   

• CUSTOM COMBAT SYSTEM – Rise of the Third Power features eight playable characters with a combat system built from the ground up, each with their own strengths and weaknesses, all designed to engage in combat simultaneously without the need for tedious squad management. Combine each character’s unique abilities and weaknesses, analyze your opponents’ abilities, arrange your forces, and enter the battle.

   

• PERMANENT EQUIPMENT UPGRADES – Every piece of equipment found, purchased, or stolen is a permanent, unique upgrade for each character. Instead of buying replacements, the player buys upgrades. No more buying an awesome helmet in town only to find better treasures in a dungeon. Each character has 3 equipment slots with 8 upgrades in each, for a total of 192 upgrades. This system eliminates the tediousness of inventory management, but still allows for a fun gameplay experience.
