More than 100 kinds of monsters and boss characters
There are more than 100 types of monsters designed for "Astoria Ascending," with a variety of appearances and attributes. In addition to these monsters, players will also have to battle boss characters who guard the temples of the 12 constellations.

The battles become more severe as the story progresses, but the eight characters can be strengthened in any order the player wishes, using the Ascension Tree, a character skill growth system that uses the points and experience gained by each character in battle.

Each character has different special techniques, and by strengthening the ability to counter enemies with various attributes, such as fire, water, and wind for a sorcerer, players can also enjoy the strategic aspect of using the most appropriate character and attack technique depending on the battle situation.

■Riddle solving built into every stage
In the dungeons visited by demigods, there are many challenging puzzles and riddles that, together with the story, immerse players in an adventurous journey.

Astoria Ascending" offers players an epic world of adventure based on a game system that follows the best aspects of the classic RPGs that many game fans have come to know and love over the years, and a new story that explores the themes of fate and sacrifice.
Each of the eight heroic "333rd Demigod" characters, entrusted with the fate of a world of looming chaos, has their own story to tell.

In addition to 25 dungeons set in five cities, approximately 30 hours of gameplay, and meticulously tuned turn-based battles, players can also try their hand at a variety of side quests and mini-games, including a token game based on the original fantasy world.
