About

“Back in the earliest days, there was no sun and the world was dark. The heavens opened up and stars fell like beacons into the pitch black world, and they were known as “Embers”. Powerful and wise druids of a primordial race, “the Lightbringers," roamed the land searching for this luminous matter. They performed a ritual of awakening to call the “Embers” out of their deep sleep. Suddenly the world became bright, and the veil of darkness was lifted. The Embers were the embodiment of magical flame, light, and life, but as word spread about the sheer power of the Embers, they came to be hunted and captured…and so the War for Ember began…”


Gameplay overview
A passion project 10 years in the making, Ember is a homage to classic role-playing games (RPG). Enter the world of Ember as a resurrected “Lightbringer” summoned to protect the dying Embers as the world is on the brink of collapse. Beginning in the Deep Barrows, traverse vast environments divided between above ground and underground realms – ranging from lush forests to dry deserts and dark abysses – to reach the City of Light. See how the story unfolds through encounters with strangers by making pivotal decisions about your own destiny.

Ember reviews and comments

So I bought it in the Sale and didn't regret it. I summarize what I liked so much. Good: Graphically, it's not the highest quality, but I thought it was absolutely fine. There was actually no Corner where I would have thought to myself, "Well, but that looks loveless." I also found the Control of the Group that can be coordinated separately, which I did not know yet in a Hack 'n Slay RPG. So-La-La: The map design seems to be becoming increasingly "flatter," meaning that the different Parts of The world are increasingly losing allure and appearing more loveless. I would also have liked to see far More Side Quests and a clearer "crafting menu," in which you can compare directly with the Items created, for example, but it is tolerable. Bad: The Story is kind of pretty lame. At First you get the Impression that it can get really cool, but the further you "immerse" in the World, the more lame everything gets (but doesn't want to give too much away here). I think you could have brought in a little more "epic" There, instead you feel like some running Lad. What still bothered me was the Way the Characters use Spells. These are determined solely by enchanted Objects, that is, that ultimately all Classes can use the same Spells, which can even be bought at various Retailers in the Form of Runes, so I don't really realize where the Big Differences of classes should be the Companions, except in the Initial Values of the Stats, which you can reset for little Gold but at any time ...

Very good surprise this game. A very good scenario and a good lifespan for an iPad game. To take your eyes closed.

Great game. Still no iphone x support though which is disappointing for such a big game. Would give it far better rating if it had.

I bought the game 15/9 and it does not work on my iPad Pro or on my iPhone 6plus. Both are with IOS10. Don't buy before a fix comes in.

Beautiful graphic, beautiful story, offline, 3 party members, some action in the fights (but little strategy), looting, skilling, crafting-aaaaallles with us. Is worth his money, has made fun! (In English)

Very nice Game with great Graphics and you can play well on the iPad. Reminds something Of Baldurs Gate 2. However, the Controls could be better. You move to the Screen with Tapping, so you cover up a Part of the Screen with your own Hand. Better would be a Control Wheel in the right-tash left corner.

Il gioco sembra davvero ben sviluppato, ho iniziato la mia partita su iPhone 6Plus e ho salvato su iCloud. Ho provato a continuare a giocare sul mio iPad Mini 2 ma appena si carica la partita l’applicazione va in crash. Davvero un peccato. Very nice game but iCloud save doesn’t work. I started to play on my iPhone 6 Plus and I tried to continue the game with my iPad Mini 2, on iPad when I load the save game the app always crashes. Please fix it. Thanks.

Ember is an old-fashioned action RPG, along the lines of Diablo or Nox (for those who remember), with fights and loot at will. Sound a bit ' repetitive but pleasant, graphically it looks really beautifully, with pleasant animations and settings filled with details and colourful with gusto. If you're looking for a game of this kind on iPad, it's a pretty much obliged choice. Promoted with full marks on iPad Pro also for stability and fluidity.
