The Last Islands of Man

The Last Islands of Man is a retro rpg that will test your time management and efficiency. Every fight you make, every step you take, every nap you sneak, might cost you. The waters of the world are rising. Major countries and cities have been washed away by the steady advance. Now your small village of Akalabeth might be the last. Refugees are now as common as the monsters in the dungeons. The world is more dangerous and our time remaining is dwindling. Can you save yourself from the villains around you? Can you save your family from the strengthening monsters crawling out of the depths?

The village of Akalabeth and the surrounding islands have been open to your exploration for years as you grew up. Instead of challenging the world you stayed close to home, playing with your friends, reading and not learning the skills needed to survive. You've ignored the perils facing the world, just as your parents have, and then one day it seems your mother has had enough ...
