About Yaga

Yaga is a beat-em-up from the developer Breadcrumbs Interactive and the publisher Versus Evils. In this world inspired by Slavic folklore, you'll step into the shoes of a talented but unlucky blacksmith namely Ivan. He has to complete an impossible task from the Tzar, and everything will work against him in his journey.

Yaga Is The Game About The Impossible Task Finding — Ivan has no choices but following the order of the Tzar

To be more specific, he only has one hand and must use his blacksmith talents to craft some equipment to help him on the way. Waiting for him are tons of powerful creatures in the wild, which are always ready to chew him up. If that's not terrible enough, he'll also have to resist the witch named Baba Yaga, who always tries to manipulate him.

Ivan can still try to handle that, but this one is nearly impossible. His grandmother is desperately waiting for him to bring home a wife, and if he can't, she would be very sad. What will Ivan's fate will lead him to? Let's find out for yourself at its launch!

Gameplay features

In our previous articles, we've explained the key gameplay features of Yaga for you. Basically, it's an RPG, in which you'll take control of Ivan wandering in the land to fulfill the Tzar's quest. Only having one hand is a huge disadvantage, and Ivan must make up for it by forging other powerful weapons.

Through the latest trailer, we can see how they're useful in certain cases. They include a Hookshot, a lightning hammer and a claw. They're only some of the equipment that Ivan can forge, as the game has a deep crafting system. In fact, there are more talisman magic items that Ivan can make use of on his journey, too.

Furthermore, the story of Yaga will be told through the casts of interesting characters. Don't underestimate this feature, as having conversations with the NPC and complete their quests will gain more reputation for Ivan, and will change the whole outcome of the story. Maybe if he gets more famous, he'll finally catch some girls on the way, right!

Last but not least, Yaga has multiple endings, which will put you in different situations with your mission outcomes. Together with the procedurally-generated maps and hidden locations, Yaga will cost you several days to explore all of its good!
