Long before the first Honored temple, a young Bronze Age king named Acku dug a machine out of the sand. It called itself the voice of the Gods, and it sent him across Snoheland for five relics: the five pieces of the largest Snohe Altar ever found.

Honored Origins is a top-down action-adventure on a hand-built hex world. Walk the mesas, the dunes and the shallow salt sea of the Honored homeworld, find the Ancients' buried chambers, and fight your way to the relic at the bottom of each one.

Two ways to move

Out on the map, Acku steps one hex at a time and the world waits for him. Inside a chamber -- or wherever something comes for him -- everything runs in real time, and it is sword against whatever the Ancients left behind.

A sword, a hop and a tool

One thumb walks, the other aims the bronze blade in any direction and cuts; hold it and let go to spin. Hop over pits and out of the way of a charge. Every chamber ends with a guardian and gives Acku a new tool, and each tool is the key to the next part of the world.

Ghosts cannot be seen until they are lit

A blade passes straight through a ghost in the dark. Throw light on it and it can be fought. And every relic set back in the Altar makes the ghosts stronger.

Warmth is life

Acku is cold-blooded. Shade and wounds drain his hearts; standing still in the sun, or resting at a shrine, warms him back up. Run out and he faints, and wakes at the last shrine he touched with everything he found.
