About This Game

Foundlings is a story-driven RPG revolving around a journey of maturing, self-discovery and forgiveness.

Taking cues from classic SNES RPGs and adding a pinch of branching dialogue and character building, Foundlings seeks to explore new and exciting ways of crafting an RPG experience.

After getting arrested on the same night due to performing unsanctioned magical acts, young healer's apprentice Agnes and remorseful ex-executioner Frant are brought together by the whim of a local feudal lord.

They are tasked with tracking down the head of a deviant mages' guild, whom they suspect to be responsible for the recent unrest among both the local wildlife and the inhabitants of the surrounding villages.
