VED is a story-driven RPG featuring stunning hand drawn art and animation, a unique turn-based combat system and rogue-lite elements. Set in two different worlds, VED tells the story of Cyrus, a young hero who sets out on a quest to become a master of sword and magic, and save everything he knows from destruction.

Immerse yourself in a fantastical world with a rich storytelling experience, dozens of irreversible consequences and alternative endings, and gameplay that’s easy to learn but difficult to master!

In VED, you take on the role of Cyrus, a young hero who comes to the city of Micropolis in search of a new life. There he suddenly discovers the ability to teleport between two interconnected worlds full of mysterious flying islands, strange creatures, and dangerous monsters. Unfold an interactive story where each decision matters and help Cyrus discover the truth about this magical place, so that you can decide the fate of two worlds. To succeed in your quest, you will have to master the powerful magic of the Veds.

The game’s huge fantasy world, characters, and aesthetic design are inspired by various cultures and mythologies. Throughout Cyrus’s quest he will encounter many factions that have different views on the events taking place. By helping inhabitants from magical lands and the real world, Cyrus will learn more about himself, both universes and most importantly, how to save them all… Or become their doom.

Craft unique combinations of Veds by building new structures in the village for yourself and your allies to unlock new skills and abilities. Select magical powers that work together to efficiently dispatch foes and defeat even your strongest enemies. Explore two different worlds, encounter bizarre creatures, and master the magic of the Veds!
