About This Game

In the captivating world of Iona, players embark on a thrilling narrative journey in the heart of a remarkable Narrative Game. Within this immersive experience, players are granted the unique ability to shape the story's outcome through the choices they make, allowing for a truly personalized and engaging adventure.

Our tale begins on the momentous day of Ella's coronation, a joyous occasion that is abruptly disrupted by a sudden and unexpected attack on the castle. In the chaos that ensues, Ella stumbles upon a hidden chamber, concealed from the prying eyes of the kingdom for centuries. Within its ancient walls lies a fearsome dragon, imprisoned and yearning for freedom.

Driven by curiosity and an innate desire for justice, Ella dares to help the captive dragon break free from its shackles. Little does she know that this seemingly small act of kindness will set in motion a series of extraordinary events that will forever alter the course of her own destiny and the fate of the Kingdom of Iona.

As Ella and her newfound ally embark on their exhilarating journey, they traverse treacherous landscapes, encounter mythical creatures, and confront powerful adversaries. Along the way, Ella's character is tested, and she discovers that the true strength lies not in her physical abilities, but in the depths of her heart.

Through the highs and lows of their odyssey, Ella gradually unveils the untapped potential within herself, realizing that her choices have the power to shape not only her own narrative but also the very fabric of the kingdom she holds dear. As her character develops, Ella learns the importance of courage, compassion, and resilience in the face of adversity.

The Kingdom of Iona itself becomes a living, breathing entity, shaped by the consequences of Ella's decisions. The people she encounters, the alliances she forges, and the challenges she overcomes all contribute to the intricate tapestry of the narrative. The players become active participants, weaving their own story within the grand tapestry of Iona.

Ultimately, the fate of the Kingdom of Iona rests upon Ella's shoulders and the choices she makes. Will she lead her people to prosperity and harmony, or will she succumb to the forces of darkness that threaten to consume the land? The answers lie within the hearts of the players, as they navigate the intricate web of decisions, dilemmas, and consequences that lie ahead.

Prepare to be captivated by the rich storytelling, stunning visuals, and compelling characters that populate the world of Iona. Step into Ella's shoes and embark on an unforgettable adventure where the power to shape the narrative lies within your hands. The heart of Iona beats with anticipation, ready to be shaped by your choices and forever etch your mark on this extraordinary tale.

This is like Frozen, The Princess and the Pauper, and Eragon mixed together with timed choices and an interesting story. If you liked the things I mentioned, you will like this and if you don't know about them, this is still fun. Great game but one sprite scared the crap out of me at the ending I chose. Other than that, I love it.

A girl. A dragon. I've seen this somewhere before. Mother of dragons. Wasn't it on Game of Thrones? In general, this is a fairy tale novel, read, follow the plot and sometimes choose what to answer in dialogues. Help Ella save her kingdom of Jonah. Boom schlakalam!

This little fantasy VN is not particularily bad, but neither is it outstandingly good. I definitely don't belong amongst the intended audience. It's nicely romantic and a bit cheesy, with mostly nice visuals (a bit of the ending falls out of the line) and would probably suit best to young players. Unfortunately, it is also made quite sloppily - besides the lack of logic common in the genre, text occasionally repeats itself, there are continuance errors, and at one screen in the beginning there is Russian text untranslated. If you're the kind of person who is not annoyed by such details you might enjoy it. If you expect high quality work, well, that's not it. All, in all, mostly meh, but not horrible.

I was unable to make myself continue playing this game from a UX perspective. First some of the text was not translated early in the story. I am also missing some more control over the settings for the speed of the text. Also I am missing the ability to skip text as a whole.

Plunge into the atmosphere of the Middle Ages: the coronation of a princess, a castle, a cave with a dragon - everything is like in a fairy tale. More precisely, this is a fairy tale, and it is you who determine its outcome.
