MENA Gamer - Where Game Begins

it's an adventure game through and through.

It is the year 888.  Wind-blasted snowfields have covered the world of Environ for centuries.  Survivors in this ice age are few and isolated, caged by the bitter cold.  If they travel, the world itself seeks to devour them.  For most, only the enigmatic Ilari provide any shelter against extinction. Driven by desperation, others ventured into the forbidden lands to unearth and reclaim citadels of ancient and wonderful technology. Wary of the ill-understood machines, some have embraced the talents of magic and telekinesis that have emerged in recent generations despite fear of accepting those powers from the Ilari.

Now the glaciers have begun to recede, and a few brave souls venture forth.  What they discover is something no one expected:  Industrialized cities from the 5th century lie in just-abandoned ruin, next to far-flung bronze-age towns from the first century of the ancient era, near enclaves of skeletal robots from a time after people.  Most people from those fragments of other times are dead, but some live on despite periodic scouring windstorms and roving monsters.  These people are as lost and confused as the refugees from the ice age.

This is a deadly new world, and the scattered peoples of Environ must work together if they wish to stay alive.  They must thwart the wind, the monsters, and the would-be tyrants popping up.  They must explore and scavenge the time-shards to find the materials they need.  And they may need to enlist the Ilari to help rebuild civilization.  If the survivors can find out what happened to their world, that would seem a luxury.  Such massive damage seems irreversible, but some may build what all now dream of:  A home free of fear and death.  A "valley without wind."
