In Egglia: Legend of the Redcap, players follow the story of a gentle elf named Chabo who mysteriously falls from the sky and arrives on the continent of Egglia. Players will uncover the mystery of Chabo and Egglia as they explore and uncover new areas of the world sealed away within eggs. Players will develop the world of Egglia through building houses, summoning spirits, warding off monsters and forming alliances with other races. Once all of Egglia has been restored, players can continuously explore and build throughout the world and new episodes are planned for future release.

 

“I believe some people prefer their games to be less violent, especially here in Japan,” said Egglia creator and art director Shinichi Kameoka. “I hope Egglia can become a refuge for those who seek a more peaceful kind of game.”
