Ash of Gods is a turn-based RPG that combines tactical turn-based combat with dramatic, choice-driven storytelling. The game world is a fantasy on the theme of the European Middle Ages, and also has inclusions of Chinese, Japanese and Arabic cultures. The Harvest is approaching — the coming of the forces of the Umbra people. The plot centers on a group of refugees trying to survive in troubled times. The detachment is led by Thorn Brenin, a veteran of several wars and a recognized authority. Together with his daughter named Gleda, he witnessed the appearance of the Reaper — the harbinger of the Harvest. The hometown found itself in the grip of madness: people found themselves in the grip of dark forces and began to destroy each other, preparing the ground for the coming apocalypse. To survive, Thorn gathered everyone he could and left his fiefdom to go on a long journey through the world of Terminum.
