New release: The King’s Heroes
Word reaches me that the ever-prolific Aldorlea Games has released a new jRPG called The King’s Heroes.
The premise:
Princess Darlene has vanished. The King is completely broke.
His only chance is to ask his closest friends for help.
And one of them is a natural choice, having been there when it happened.
But the shock of it has wiped out most of the memory, and your only clue remains a torn parchment.Choose among a knight, a witch, a minister even, and several others, and try to find out what happened to the King’s daughter.
But choose well, because much more than actual professionals, these people are first and foremost the King’s best friends. Will they end up heroes, or zeros?
You have a say in the matter!

I am over halfway done with this game and it is really good. The Dungeon Master-like picking of your party leads to some great party building you will try over and over until you find one you like.
