Elin: Roguelike RPG Prequel to Elona

The game will have more focus on base-building, survival, and living life.

In 2006, Japanese indie developer noa released Elona – a roguelike JRPG set in a fantasy world. Over 15 years later, the creator decided to continue the story and launched a Kickstarter campaign for its prequel Elin, which is doing great now.

"In Elin, you will land in the world of Ylva and start a life as an adventurer. Build your bases, recruit your allies, and explore various regions filled with procedurally generated dungeons and quests. Whether you become a hero unraveling the mysteries of the world, a wanted criminal doing all kinds of evil deeds, or a hermit building a gentle paradise where only younger sisters reside, it is up to you what footprints or scars you will leave on this world."

Elin is a completely new game, according to the developer, featuring the gameplay and worldview of its predecessor but with and isometric view and "more focus on base-building, survival, and living life." 

As noa states, the new game will have the same freedom of gameplay as before: you can experience a range of activities such as exploring, dungeon crawling, crafting, trading, questing, and, of course, just living a simple life – an aspect the creator seems to be especially proud of.

Elin will be available on Windows in English, Japanese, and Chinese at the end of 2023. Support the game here and don't forget to join our 80 Level Talent platform and our Telegram channel, follow us on Instagram and Twitter, where we share breakdowns, the latest news, awesome artworks, and more.
