About this game
"I could swear I knew that forest, but so many things have changed"
The vast and cruel world of Ada is waiting for you to explore. You can choose whichever path you want as long as you can fight your way through encountered enemies. Find all secrets scattered across the land and water, and use the fast travel option to speed up your journey. Find your own way on your journey through carefully handcrafted and designed zones.
"Sometimes dodging is essential"
Combat in Ada is based on a combination of a basic attack routine with a secondary skill of your choice and potions/consumables. Every fight could end well with proper movement and dodging. Be prepared, observe, adapt, and survive.
Enemies in Ada are carefully designed to bring the highest amount of fair difficulty to the game. They are unique both visually and mechanically. Some will attack you alone with big combos or swings, and others will be fast, agile, and evade your attack, while others may group up to get you with numbers. Prepare for epic encounters with main and side bosses that fit the zone you are exploring.
"I should have never entered these ruins"
You'll meet Ada, and as much as you'd want her to have an everyday, happy life, it's not possible in this land, at this time, in this world. Any job would be better than that, but there's no other one for you...
Immerse yourself in a story brimming with mystery and the pangs of solitude. This land is a place of constant surprises, where nothing is as it seems, and everything is a departure from your memories. Engage with the characters, delve into their storylines, and embark on quests. Each one is a unique tale with its own distinct character and appearance.
Traces of the land's history, rich and diverse, can be discovered strewn along your path. Whether in the form of paintings or vivid flashbacks, they reveal ancient battles, transforming dilapidated ruins into majestic castles, or significant historical events that shaped the world you now explore.
"It always amazes me how leaves, roots, and blood of a rodent turn into weapons of mass destruction."
Use alchemy to create valuable potions and heal or boost your abilities. Your mixtures can also be thrown at enemies to harm, confuse, stun, or even turn them against each other. Collect herbs, crystals, vials, and other ingredients to create powerful potions. Each comes in different sizes, and the bigger the size, the stronger the explosion.
Potions can also help interact with the environment, burning things down or freezing the water. Who knows what that might mean for you and your exploration of the world of Ada...

The Cult of the Spider
Deep within the forests lie places where sunlight falters and dies before it ever touches the ground. Beneath tangled canopies and choked branches, the air grows thick and still, as though the world itself is holding its breath. In that dim half-light far from human paths and fading from memory, dwell creatures whose names are no longer spoken.There were days when the entire forest bent to their dominion. Every branch, every hollow, every trembling thread of life belonged to them. But like all empires, theirs withered. Time eroded their power, scattered their kin, and left their kingdom to rot in silence. And yet, on her journey, Ada strays beyond the known trails, into lands long abandoned and there, she finds what was never truly gone.The Cult of the Spider once whispered about in dread as a creeping plague that consumed grove after grove with unnatural hunger has faded into obscurity. Villages burned their shrines, and the world chose to forget. Now, it lingers only as a husk of its former might, a dying echo clinging to the edges of existence. But shadows, once cast, do not vanish so easily.What drives those who remain? What faith sustains them in the face of ruin? Why do they still wait, patient and unyielding, for the day when silken threads will choke the skies and bind the world in a suffocating web? No answer survives. Memory has decayed, just as their numbers have. Only a scattered few endure—zealots, or perhaps something less than human now.What we do know is this: the spiders have changed.They are no longer silent architects lurking at the edges of sight. They are restless. Agitated. Hungry in a way that feels… deliberate. As if something stirs beneath their instincts, something ancient, watching through a thousand unblinking eyes.Some would dismiss them as mere beasts, lashing out in their final struggle against extinction.How comforting that would be.How terribly, irrevocably wrong.Read full article on Community Announcements (Sledziu)AnnouncementsOfficial
Meet the Jester
Here comes the Jester.He speaks in riddles - always in riddles - and somehow, despite their madness, they remain your only explanation for what is unfolding around you. Though truth be told, you would welcome a clearer one. Understanding him is like grasping smoke; the harder you try, the more it slips through your fingers.No one knows where he came from. No one knows who, or what he truly is. And as for how he knows so much… that question has no answer, only uneasy silence. He speaks of things he should not know, of places he has never been, yet somehow has.He appears where he does not belong. In locked rooms. In forgotten corridors. In moments that should be yours alone. And always, always he is one step ahead, waiting, watching, smiling as though the world itself were a game already played.Is he an ally… or a foe? The question lingers, unanswered, twisting in the back of your mind. Yet as long as his words guide you forward, as long as his riddles lead you out of danger or - deeper into it you find yourself with little choice but to follow. Or perhaps… to trust.He laughs. He plays. He dances along the edge of absurdity, a harmless fool draped in color and mischief. But sometimes something else slips through. A pause too long. A smile that doesn’t quite reach his eyes. A fragment of tone that feels… wrong.And in those fleeting moments, through the cracks of his mask, something far darker stirs.Something that watches you back.Read full article on Community Announcements (Sledziu)AnnouncementsOfficial
When the world collapses
In an age when mythical creatures roamed the earth, when colossal krakens ruled the boundless depths of the seas, and runic bears - whose fur pulsed with ancient power - wandered the lands, outward manifestations of magic were rarely witnessed. It was present, yet hidden - flowing through the veins of the world like a silent current, unseen to the eye, but felt by those who knew how to listen. Balance prevailed, and power held its rightful place, untouched by the hand of man. Yet this state could not endure. During the great war - its causes long since lost to memory and the fading records of chroniclers - the very laws that governed the world were broken. Spells cast without restraint, rituals performed in desperation, and weapons infused with forces no one truly understood tore at the fabric of reality itself. Where chaos took root, fractures appeared - thin as cracks in glass, yet as dangerous as open wounds - through which venom began to seep. At first, it was barely noticeable. Only the most sensitive spoke of a strange chill lingering in the air, of dreams that did not belong to the dreamer, and of a silence that seemed to listen. But with each passing year, the fractures widened, and what leaked from them began to change the world in ways that could not be undone. When the last kraken drew its final breath and its immense body sank into the ocean depths, stirring the waters as never before, and when the bones of the last dragon began to gather moss and fade into oblivion, something in the world broke for good. From shallow-rooted streams of energy beneath the earth - where power once flowed unseen - the first crystals began to grow. Sharp, gleaming, and pulsing with light, they were the physical manifestation of magic left unconsumed when the creatures that once fed upon it and kept it in balance were gone. It did not take long for them to become just another part of the landscape. At first, they inspired fear and distrust, but curiosity soon prevailed.

Devlog #3 - The World of Ada
In the world of Ada, the ruins of the past grotesquely intertwine with a world struggling to survive.Overgrown remnants of civilization decay in silence, swallowed by nature and time. Cracked stone walls are wrapped in creeping vines, collapsed towers pierce the sky like broken teeth, and abandoned roads lead nowhere. Across the land, the scars of a devastating plague remain visible - not only in the environment, but in the beings that inhabit it.Venture into unexplored regions and discover those who still endure. Each unique location tells its own story and presents its own dangers. In every land you enter, you will face the monsters that have claimed it as their domain. If you choose to look deeper, you may uncover the histories of the people you meet - how they survive, what they have lost, and what keeps them moving forward in a dying world.Travel across vast open plains and confront the creatures lurking within the tall grass. The wind may seem peaceful, but movement in the distance is rarely harmless. Climb the broken stairways of ruined temples and descend into their shadowed interiors, where echoes of forgotten rituals still linger among the dust and decay.Push through dense forests inhabited by enormous spiders and uncover the secrets hidden beneath their tangled canopies. Something is happening to the forest’s inhabitants. They are changing - fading, twisting, becoming shadows of what they once were. The deeper you go, the clearer it becomes that the plague has reshaped more than just the land.Avoid the horrors concealed within the swamps and do not be deceived by those who dwell there. The maze of winding paths and murky waters can easily lead you astray. In this place, the greatest threat is not always what rises from below, but what waits patiently for you to lose your way.Step carefully as you descend into underground caverns in search of the path forward. Explore ancient graveyards and castle ruins long buried and forgotten beneath layers of earth. Be...Read full article on Community Announcements (Sledziu)Patch NotesOfficial
