The Game

Drakontias is an illustrated text-based RPG with deep branching narrative, card battles & deck-building. Explore the mystical realm of Aldunia where every choice you make, shapes the story.

Will you revive the dragon-god Drakontias or claim his power for yourself?

A Word from the Developer

Drakontias is our first indie game, born from a deep passion and nostalgia for the 90's pen-and-paper gamebooks — Fighting Fantasy, Sorcery!, Lone Wolf, Metamorphose — and inspired by titles like — Skyrim, Slay the Spire, Roadwarden, 80 Days. Our goal is to blend compelling writing, branching narratives, stunning landscapes, rich RPG mechanics, and thrilling card battles & deckbuilding into an experience that players will love!

Thank you for buying Drakontias and supporting the indie game community! ❤️

– Leo Sanders, Founder of Spark Machine

Coming soon on Steam!
