About the game
| Aeon of Sands – The Trail is a roleplaying game set in a post-apocalyptic desert world.

Accompany the vain, nap-loving clerk Setrani through his first major adventure. Guide him on his travels through a dangerous land, ravaged by the weather and by tribal conflicts. Struggle with him as the desert, wickedly, sets trap after trap on his path. Get ready for a world full of events, puzzles, combat and secrets that want to be explored!
