About Faria: A World of Mystery & Danger!

Faria - A World of Mystery & Danger! is an adventure that begins with a prophecy fulfilled during a great storm, setting the stage for events three months later. The player controls a young adventurer whose initial mission involves rescuing a princess, after which they can explore the world freely.

Its gameplay merges exploration and character progression common to Japanese role-playing games with real-time combat. Encounters with enemies occur randomly on the world map and within the maze-like interiors of towers and caves, where combat requires movement and the use of physical attacks or spells. Navigating these dungeons also involves solving a variety of puzzles.
