Story
Ancora, founded hundreds of years ago by the first Guildmaster Othniel is a city of light powered by the Saga, a collection of all the amazing stories of the Bible. The City of Ancora provides light and life for the whole land. The Spire of Light which stands at the top of the city glows with the power of those stories.

The city of Ancora is still recovering from the attack of the Great Shadow, Ancora’s greatest enemy. Jealous of Ancora’s light and the power of the Saga, the Great Shadow launched an attack against the city to steal away its stories. He was defeated by the simplest of treasures a plain wooden cup which symbolises the greatest story in the whole saga, but many of the stories were lost in the attack and the Spire grew dim.

Ancora is now calling for young heroes to come forward and help rediscover these lost stories and bring the light back to the city! Will you answer the call?

Arise Guardian, it’s time to be a hero!

Ratings and reviews

I truly do love this game. It's quality and structure is just amazing. Would totally buy as a computer game. The voice acting is wonderful and so is the art. My only real issue is that there isn't much content and it's completely confined to the gospels. i would like to see some old testament or some of Paul. It also takes forever to level up to get items to get to special areas so your just doing the same thing over and over. I would lower the level cap to get the items until more content.

The graphics on this game were very well done. Like others have said the controls make the experience limited. There were moments of glitching and then I would have to restart the level. It would be appreciated if the content of the game remained biblical and didnt diverge from the truth especially with young ones playing the game. I was happy to find such a well done biblical game but was saddened to see it stray from accuracy. Please consider revising this game. God bless.

Cool game. Nice stories. Need 2 things. 1. Add more stories OR 2. Reduce level for skills. I'm at level 12 and pretty much finished all stories. What am I supposed to do now? I know that it takes a lot of time to create a new level but I've played this game intermittently for around 2 years and there have been no additional stories. Liked the new features but it's like you're giving sides with no main course. Add a couple stories and I'm pretty sure your ratings will soar.
