Black Geyser: Couriers of Darkness is a two-dimensional team RPG inspired by titles such as Planescape: Torment, Baldur's Gate 2 or Pillars of Eternity. The action of this title is set in a dark, war-torn fantasy world. This production was created by GrapeOcean Technologies thanks to a successful crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter.

Story

The kingdom of Isilmerald is ruled by chaos and despair. Their source is neither a plague of the undead, nor a demonic attack, but something much more mundane... greed, which is the result of an ominous force affecting people's minds. Not even the protagonist of the game is free of it - it is only up to us if we succumb to greed and eventually plunge the kingdom into chaos, or if we help him recover from the fall.
