Besides the game you now know so well, the world of Etrom was also crafted through narration and released as a novel by AgeofGames founder, Fabio Belsanti.

The novel released in Italian became a best-seller within the country's sci-fi community, so we decided to translate and add the first part, completely for free, on Steam. As long as you have purchased a copy of the game, you've got access to part one of the novel.

Description:

"Etrom, a former sacred stormtrooper, has suffered the call of the astral essence and discovered that the abyss is more powerful than ever, within the walls of the megacity of the Sacred Republic of Sighundia.

Wandering through astral, dreamlike, neural worlds and networks, Etrom encounters mysterious creatures, people and civilisations, experiencing past, present and future moments of a confused humanity cast into darkness. A unique and immersive experience in a twisted, dark and desperate world, where the only light, perhaps, is that of hell."

You can now also purchase part one of the novel on Amazon, by visiting here: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0CTX5SBYW

Developer’s Technical Note:

We must inform players that "Etrom - The Astral Essence: 20th Anniversary Edition" may experience bugs and system crashes on certain hardware and software configurations. In our 2023 internal playtests, conducted two decades after the game's original launch, major bugs and crashes were encountered on approximately 30% of PCs running Windows 10 and 11 operating systems.

The game, developed by AgeofGames (formerly known as PMStudios Italia), is a piece of Independent Videogame Archeology from the early 2000s. The proprietary engine, developed by a single programmer, was imperfect then and remains so today, given the rapid evolution of hardware configurations.

Furthermore, please note that you cannot save the game until the completion of the first level, which typically takes between 15 to 45 minutes. Certain antivirus systems may block the game entirely. Unfortunately, we are unable to update the engine's code to address these issues.

Despite these challenges, we are releasing "Etrom - The Astral Essence: 20th Anniversary Edition today, at a symbolic price of $2.99. We believe that the game's setting and narrative remain valid and captivating, and we have overhauled the English dialogue, thanks to the contributions of the award-winning science fiction writers of the CyberScrivens collective. We hope that new and returning players can immerse themselves in this parallel universe for a few hours, with the potential for future expansion using modern technology and development programs.

Etrom was first released in 2003, and this is the first time after two decades, that our old, ambitious and dark Point and Click RPG, returns with its rich storyline, nostalgic graphics, and eerie score, to excel on or haunt your much more advanced operating systems of today!

We will launch the game on Steam as a piece of archaeological videogame history, for the symbolic price of $2.99, and remind you that you may not be able to run the game on your platform and/or could encounter bugs.

If that is the case, please remember the 2 hour playtime refund policy available on Steam, we would have loved to fix its deepest issues but after twenty years of technological advancement, that task has become far too difficult.

Now, to the hype:

Etrom invites you to embark on a journey through a dystopian future where societies are divided by physical barriers, arcane rituals, endless wars, and the enigmatic Void Lands.

You’ll step into the shoes of Etrom, a former HWD (Human World Defense) operative, whose life takes a profound turn when he hears the mysterious call of the Astral Essence. In this dark, futuristic Middle Ages, you must navigate treacherous cities, explore ancient civilizations, and traverse otherworldly realms to unravel the secrets of the Astral Essence and your own existence.

With lots of locations teeming with rituals, secret plots, and dark spells, Etrom offers a captivating world to explore for the first time, or after 20 years in the shadows.

Prepare for grueling, constant battles against a diverse array of foes, from humans to monsters and otherworldly beings. Harness spectacular Astral Powers such as Meteor and Lightning Storm, and through your in-game choices, unlock incredible transformations, turning into a fearsome Demon, Draconian Guardian, or an Abyssal Knight.

The voice of the Gods echoes through the astral worlds, beckoning you to uncover the secrets beyond the gates of a dark reality and to follow your path of Truth and Justice.

We hope to see you in our world on November 2nd!
