A downloadable game for Windows
Shards of Nogard
An ancient realm on the brink of annihilation. Three heroes under the spiritual guidance of a mighty dragon-guardian, united on a mission to save the vast and diverse lands of Nogard from chaos and extinction. Shards of Nogard is a powerful, evocative fantasy adventure game that will surprise you with fastpaced combat, mind-boggling puzzles, beautiful hand-crafted environments and an immersive story about the eternal battle between the sanguine powers of fire and blood on the one hand, and the unyielding strength of hope on the other.
Join us and pick up the shards!
Developed by a young and passionate team hailing from diverse countries and backgrounds, Shards of Nogard aspires to be a truly magical tale about maintaining hope and purpose in a disenchanted world consumed by the insatiable flames of war. Striking a fine balance between a platformer game and a colourful action RPG, players can switch back and forth between three different character: the optimistic and hedonistic warlord Torus, the stern and sometimes overthinking magician Alva, and the cynical yet hopelessly romantic assassin Zonder.
Each of the three characters have a history of their own, which can be explored through in-game interactions, dialogues, and mini questlines. Using these three unique characters and their specific skills, players can craft their own distinct experience and hone develop their personal playstyle as they jump, hack and slash their way through haunted forests, cursed underwater realms and raging hellfire. As players search for the shards of Nogard to restore an ancient artifact that will restore peace and harmony, they will explore a handcrafted world full of adorable NPCs, sly and shady characters and breath-taking cities and sceneries.
Take a break from all the fighting and solve a puzzle. Or talk your way through branching dialogues, make friends, and receive gifts and useful information that will make you better prepared than ever. Shards of Nogard is full of little gems and special touches that will reward any playstyle.
What is more, the three heroes are not alone on their journey. While players fight their way through legions of enemies ranging from shrewd imps to demons as old as time itself, they can cast devastating spells and call on quirky, yet powerful companions for support.
Linear story, nonlinear experience
Pretty much like in real life, you can make friends and enemies. Use your companions wisely and always think through your options, not only when you let your weapons do the talking. The result will be a game experience that rewards you with true immersion and a sense of magic and discovery that will carry over into your daily lives!
Main Characters
Torus
Torus once was one of the most legendary warriors of Nogard, before he spiralled deep into depression. But one fateful day, the mighty azure dragon Sarym showed up on his doorstep, showing Torus a way out of his endless grief and misery, and giving him purpose and a clear mission. Now, Torus is more determined than ever to save Nogard from death and devastation.
Alva
Born and raised in the rat-infested slums of the fabled port city Madruga Dinha, Alva became a powerful and respected spellcaster thanks to her diligence and unparalleled work ethic. One day, however, the head of the Spellcaster’s Council committed high treason and put all the realms of Nogard at great risk. After this treachery, Alva is fiercely committed to putting her supernatural powers to use to save Nogard and its people.
Zonder
Zonder is the epitome of a maverick. The son of an old aristocratic family, he renounced his privileged upbringing and joined a secret order of assassins to get away from his family. Ever since, killing has been his profession, and thanks to his formidable skills, he eventually became the leader of the assassins. And yet, he did not feel happiness, felt a sense of gloom and emptiness growing inside him and left the guild to retire in the countryside, until the azure dragon Sarym convinced him to join his mission to protect the realms Nogard…
