A new text-based RPG, Eldrum: Black Dust – Text RPG, has arrived on Android. This latest installment in Act None's Eldrum series (following Eldrum: Untold and Eldrum: Red Tide) offers a compelling narrative and challenging choices.
A Fresh Story in Familiar Territory?
Eldrum: Black Dust transports players to the harsh desert landscapes of the south. This arid environment is rife with betrayal, ethical dilemmas, and unforgiving creditors. While some familiar factions appear, the storyline and setting are entirely new.
Unlike its predecessors, this game introduces a class system, adding depth to the intense turn-based combat. It masterfully blends the immersive storytelling of Choose Your Own Adventure books with the strategic complexity of D&D.
The narrative follows a drifter burdened by a troubled past. After a misstep, they seek refuge in a desert city, only to find themselves ensnared by those they tried to escape.
Survival becomes paramount. Players must choose between paying debts with gold or resorting to violence. Eldrum: Black Dust features branching narratives, where decisions directly impact the journey and lead to multiple endings.
