"Drova - Forsaken Kin" is a pixel art Action-RPG inspired by the grim dark classics of the genre and the mystical allure of Celtic mythology. Dive into a handcrafted open world where your choices and actions shape the environment. A society has discovered the power of a dead empire: to capture the spirits that govern nature and rule over them instead. However, the anger of the remaining spirits divided them. Where will you stand?

Join one of two factions, each with their own values and in pursuit of their own goals. Your choice will be relevant for the rest of the game and impact the entire story. Everything comes with a price. Meet teachers and learn numerous abilities, but expect foes and betrayals too.

Why buy on GOG.COM?
DRM FREE. No activation or online connection required to play.
The world design, behaviour of NPCs, bioms, quests, locations and even the soundtracks are very similar to Gothic.
the developers are from germany and you can tell by the way the NPCs speak. Big advice: Play it in German!
Look, Drova is pretty great. You're teleported to a weird alternate universe/place, you've got nothing, you're struggling to fight off rats and dying repeatedly to single wolves, and somehow, SOMEHOW, you have to get out of this mess and...what? Get home? Make a new life? Who knows? What you DO know is that you'd better earn some money, scrape together some decent equipment, and try not to get. Like. Eaten. Or stabbed. Or poisoned. Or shanghaied to work in The Mines.
If this sounds familiar and comforting, you probably played the Gothic series way back when, and yes, Drova's definitely got some DNA from there; but rather than being a German Countryside Simulator, it's more of a Celtic Otherworld Roguelite. It's hard, but you can make it. Sell drugs! Sell skins and hunted animal parts! Brew potions! Make traps! Get involved in a religious dispute! Bet on fights! Drova's got options. You're a survivor, not The Hero....mostly, until you are.
If you don't like pixel art this may not be your jam, and that's ok. If you really, really want to play a Mage Character.....well, I won't say there's no options, but let's just say they're probably not there for you right at the start. But otherwise it's a pretty great little RPG with plenty to enjoy and lots of dying to random gnats, cursing, reloading, and joyfully hacking your way back into the fight.
