SEA PEOPLE!!

Hi all, we have been quiet for a while, however you can be sure we were working hard on the series!

In preparation for the coming release, we have massively updated AOF engine and content. Aside from the promised Invisibility, Traps and Crafting features (which will be available in mainstream games), we have introduced a whole lot of new units, spells and skills.

The below list mentions only the major changes and we leave the rest for you to discover.

  • Sea People - the whole new faction is being added to the series! Four-arms Nagas, brave Divers, charming Mermaids, weather-changing Sea Witches, giant Sea Snakes, poisonous Sea Snails, etc. As with all other factions, new tactics need to be learned.

  • Two new units for humans - an Oracle and a flying Griffin Knight. The Oracle is a unit with a unique Clairvoyance skill that helps to see hidden units and traps. The Griffin Knight is an alternative upgrade for a Knight, adding the prized flying ability.

  • New ray attack mechanic - all units in a line are hit(instead of a single target). For example we upgraded Evil Eyes' Death Ray.

  • New spells and skills like Silence (temporarily disables enemy spells and skills), Shield Bash (can stun opponent), Riposte (counter-attack after missed strike), Crystal Skin (new trait for Mana addicts), Sharp Senses (to detect traps), Phoenix (restores unit once per battle), etc.

  • AI-only specialised factions like Spiders, Elementals, Harpies, etc. which randomly appear in locations.

  • Crafting and resources which let you create almost any item available in game. This feature will only be available for mainstream games in the series.

  • Invisibility and Traps: Units' actions are hidden from an opponent's view (AI included).This adds a completely new layer to the battles where players need to guess the location of enemies. We also created a set of accompanying skills useful to counter this mechanics. We will release this feature in the coming games in the series.


As always, all feedback is welcome!

Take care and have a good time,
Les & AOF Team

APRIL 30TH!!

Hi all, we are very excited to be finally able to schedule the release of the next game in the series! We plan to release it on 30th April.

Aside from a completely new story and new pair of heroes, we are adding a number of great features to the Age of Fear series:

  • CRAFTING - almost all in-game items will become craftable. We created many resources such as various plants, gemstones, metal ores, etc., as well as special skills for crafting, such as Alchemist, Blacksmith and Jeweller. The ingredients are gathered from fallen enemies as well as from the environment (after every battle).

  • ASHLANDS and SEA BATTLES are two new environments we just added. After expanding the world map and adding deserts, we found that lava levels do not match the gray areas near volcanoes; that's why we decided to create new unique areas with their own unique battle conditions.

  • The INVISIBILITY mechanics are already coded and being tested at the moment. Be ready for a surprise and major shake up of your tactics! Together with invisibility we are also introducing traps, which can be placed and will trigger their effects onto unaware trespassers. Oh, the AI can do it too.


We are really happy to be able to update the series with so many enhancements!

Take care, Les & AOF Team

CRAFTING (BETA)!!

We have made a good progress with crafting (as you can see below). All items have been grouped into themes, e.g. Chaos, Alchemy, Knight, etc. Crafting one item from one group has a chance to let you learn another item from its theme group.



There are over forty resource items which are gathered after battles. The available resource types depend on environment and also on defeated enemies.

The crafting will be released together with the next game in the series. We hope to release in April 2021.

Take care,
Les & AOF Team
