Game Overview
Goldenheart is an old-school style linear fantasy adventure game created by two people. It has a look and feel inspired by our favorite classic console games and a surreal fantasy setting like no other.
Play as an outsider, learning the ancient lore of a foreign land as you solve a mystery that has recently befallen it. As you progress you’ll find new tools and ideas that will augment the gameplay while leading you into more dangerous and anomalous places.
You’ll need to take time to explore and observe your surroundings in order to navigate the world and solve puzzles related to the plot and lore. You’ll master simple but dynamic combat using targeting, dodging, and a shield, while managing your quiver capacity and stamina.
