It also allows for multiple playthroughs which is recommended, seeing as much like a choose your own adventure book, every decision being made will have permanent choice. Following this cast of characters allows for the biggest field of view for what is happening in this grim world especially with the amount of information that Ash of Gods throws at the player. It also slips into (and maybe intentionally or not) the timeless rule of threes with main protagonist Thorn the grizzled Guard Captain, Lo the Shadow Assassin with a blood stained past and Hopper Rouley a monk who may be more than he seems. One of the best things that Ash of Gods does for itself for this kind of storytelling is weaving its tale across multiple characters. It’s not the first time it’s happened, but is very well the last. It’s unfortunate, then, that in this same world where people seem to just get by, the Reaping is upon them. People in Terminum make best with the lot they’ve been dealt in life and worship what they hold dear: the old gods, whomever they may be. The world of Ash of Gods is one steeped in a familiarity of a deep foul energy where people only look out for themselves, the commoner has little to nothing and life offers slimmer hope for much of anything else. Ash of Gods: Redemption from developer Aurum Dust is a brand-new IP telling a tale woven in fantasy that if asking one question of its player: what does hope mean to you? Fantasy gives way to self-discovery, emotional growth, reflection and allegorical storytelling that are crucial to the human experience. It’s rare though in an overabundance of stories, tales and lore that fantasy can encompass - as it stands today - the sense to get across what fantasy has existed for since the first tales of men, magic and gods. Fantasy is something that when asking anyone what it means to them, they will most likely throw out a slew of titles which can tell all that is needed of the question.
