About This Game

A world worth getting sidetracked in.

Follow a quest or a promising path. Climb into the hills, investigate a ruin, or linger to watch the locals go about their day. Work, meals, training, and ritual give this strange world a rhythm of its own.

Start with simple tools and work toward equipment you made yourself. Mine, smith, fish, and cook; your skills improve as you use them. Supplies gathered along the way can be the difference between turning back and pushing deeper.

Choose what you bring, then adapt when the fight changes. Keep your distance with a bow, break out a spell, or close in with a weapon and shield. Reposition, switch equipment, and keep food ready for a dangerous exchange.

A fish just beyond reach is a problem with more than one answer. Draw it toward shore with water, raise a path across the pond with earth, or try fire for a cooked catch. A little experimentation can make familiar tasks surprisingly different.

Katanagari is in active development. The current playtest is an early part of a larger RPG; the world, quests, and encounters are still being built.
