About This Game

From Misfortune Comes is an open-world life-sim RPG about building a life from the bottom up

You begin your final year of high school with little money, an uncertain future, and a family legacy slipping away.

Study and fight for the top of your class. Find work and build a career. Train your body. Learn new skills. Make friends. Fall in love. Earn money. Improve your home. Build a reputation.

Or pursue an entirely different kind of power.

ONE LIFE. TWO WORLDS

Beyond the real world lies a dangerous supernatural world filled with monsters, rare resources and strange powers.

Explore it. Grow stronger. Bring what you find back with you.

What you gain in one world can change your life in the other.

LIVE IN MELIÁN

Explore a dense city inspired by Buenos Aires.

Walk its residential streets.

Visit stores, restaurants, schools, workplaces and local businesses.

Explore parks, commercial districts, quiet neighborhoods and places most people never notice.

Discover hidden locations. Learn the city's history. Meet the people who live there.

The city changes throughout the year as seasons, weather, holidays, festivals and events alter what is happening around you. The current Steam page already emphasizes four seasons, changing schedules, festivals and evolving stories.

A NOTE FROM HEROIC SPIRIT GAMES

Hey guys, thank you for visiting our page. We really appreciate it, and we wanted to take a moment to explain our vision, both for those of you who have been following our development from the beginning and those who are just discovering us.

From Misfortune Comes is our dream game.

Our team came together around one purpose: to build the game we’ve always wanted to play.

We’re pooling all of our development and creative experience into making a beautiful, warm RPG built around meaningful progression. A game where the protagonist isn’t the hero of the story, but a nobody. Where the mundane parts of life matter just as much as the extraordinary ones. Where small choices, relationships, work, failure, growth, and ambition all contribute to who you eventually become.

Our hope is that by the end of the game, you can look back at where the protagonist started and barely recognize the person he has become.

What we’re building may seem ambitious, and it is. But we believe in our ability to make it because this isn’t just another project for us, we genuinely care about this world we’re trying to create.

Thank you for all the love and support you’ve given us so far. It means more to our team than you probably realize.

We won’t stop until From Misfortune Comes becomes the game we set out to make—and, hopefully, a game that stays with you long after you finish playing it.
