Game’s screen title
Aurion started its adventure on Kickstarter on September 15, 2015. The campaign reached 40% in less than two weeks. The studio hope it will be a success. Aurion: Legacy of the Kori-Odan is a 2D Fantasy-Action-RPG which pays homage to the culture and legacy of Africa and innovates in the RPG genre.
Aurion features hand-drawn and animated African-style graphics and a deep storyline that unfolds over more than 20 hours of action-packed gameplay that is filled with combat and combos. The dynamic gameplay is partially inspired by the old school Tales Of series, and focuses on 2D real-time combat sequences with narration and environments both drawing deeply from African culture, myths and lore.
The story of Aurion begins with a young prince named Enzo Kori-Odan. on the eve of his coronation and wedding day with Erine Evou. Little did he know that Ngarba Evou, his new brother-in-law, plotted to overthrow him.

Through thrillingly executed, combo-heavy action sequences, Erine and Enzo will redefine their bond, rescue the land from its villains, and restore their legacy. Working together and using their Aurionic powers — mystical and mysterious energy not unlike the “Force” from Star Wars — they combat their enemies in an attempt to win back the throne.
