About Armed Fantasia

Armed Fantasia is a dramatic story about a group of Pathfinders and their trusted ARMs who embark on a perilous journey across an expansive Westernpunk world hurtling towards destruction.

The story takes place in a far-flung corner of this world lies the land of Londenium, where a young man named Ingram loses his grandfather; the final tether binding him to his hometown.

With no other reason to stay, and in hopes of reconnecting with his childhood friend, Ingram sets out on a new adventure as a Pathfinder, a branch of adventurers that utilize the powerful ARM (Aether Reaction Maximizer) weaponry to dispose of Anomalies that ravage the land.

Armed Fantasia allows players to experience the spirit of a large-scale party-based JRPG adventure, where players cross the great expanse and use their wits to overcome any obstacle in their path.

Race, leap, solve puzzles, and feel the momentum of crossing the land, sea, and air in high-speed vehicles as they explore and follow the story with a gigantic World Map packed with things for players to do, rendered with a beautiful look!

In each dungeon, Players must switch between Gadgets to solve obstacles standing in their way, embracing the sense of victory when they finally open a particularly tricky path. Both the characters’ skills and the player’s wits are vital points to get through those dungeons in one piece.

Battles in Armed Fantasia will be turn-based but maintain a quick tempo, based on the Cross Order Tactics system. Successive character actions play a key role in the Chain Order, and disruptive Force Breaks interrupt enemy turn order.

What is a Double Kickstarter?

You might be wondering like I was just what the heck was a Double Kickstarter. Well, according to the developers, both Armed Fantasia and Penny Blood will share a mutual minimum goal of USD$750,000 that will fund both game projects.

However, the campaign will incorporate a never-before-seen “Combo Meter” that affects stretch goals across both games. So, pledges for one game will contribute to that game’s specific stretch goal meter, unlocking new content similar to normal campaigns.

For example, if you contribute USD$10 to Armed Fantasia, that USD$10 will also count for Penny Blood’s campaign.
