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 arid, treacherous southern deadlands. This new setting, while featuring some familiar factions, presents a completely original storyline filled with betrayal, moral quandaries, and unforgiving debt collectors.
Unlike its predecessors, this game introduces a class system, adding a strategic layer to the intense turn-based combat. The gameplay seamlessly blends the immersive storytelling of Choose Your Own Adventure books with the tactical depth of D&D.
The narrative centers on a drifter haunted by their past. Having made some powerful enemies, they seek refuge in a desert city, only to find themselves ensnared in a trap laid by those they tried to escape. Survival becomes paramount, forcing players to choose between paying debts with gold or resorting to violence. The branching narrative allows for diverse choices, leading to multiple endings.
