Tales of Kathay is a turn-based role-playing game set in a rich, living world that's entirely procedural and deeply simulated.

Uncover a world shaped by thousands of years of dynamic, simulated history—where kingdoms rise and fall, legends are born, and the consequences of your actions ripple across generations. Whether you’re delving into ancient dungeons, forging alliances, or altering the fate of empires, your choices truly matter.

Engage in tactical, turn-based combat inspired by classic tabletop RPGs, where creativity and planning are rewarded. Create your own stories in a sandbox world that evolves whether you’re there to shape it or simply observe it unfold.

Key Features

- A Living, Procedural World: Every game is a new experience. Explore continents with unique geography, cultures, factions, and thousands of years of procedurally generated history.

- Tactical Turn-Based Combat: Use positioning, abilities, and clever tactics in sandbox-style encounters. There’s no one right way to win—only your way.

- Deep Simulation: The world doesn’t revolve around you. NPCs live their lives, pursue goals, wage wars, and make decisions—with or without your involvement.

- Meaningful Role-Playing: Define your character’s morals, motivations, and path. Be a hero, a villain, or something in between—the world will remember.
