Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones: A Vestrian Tale

A Vestrian Tale is a FE8 Rom Hack created with the use of FEBuilder.
It is my love letter to the most volatile and pathos-laden aspects of the franchise.

Game features

- The game consists of ten chapters. It doesn't feature any gaiden chapters.
- It features a new story set in the small nation of Vestria.
- The player has 27 units at their disposal, all accessible in a single playthrough.
- A Vestrian Tale borrows numerous mechanics from Thracia 776, namely True Hit, Thracia Trading and the 99% Accuracy Cap, as well as the Capture Mechanic. The general game loop and its economy are based upon it.
- To make the capture mechanic more organic, weapons and items have been rebalanced to better harmonize with it. Moreover, the game presents a select number of skills that synergise with the aforementioned mechanic.
- In order to create a more personal gaming experience and encourage replayability, each map features several secret events. To satisfy the gambler that is in all of us, some of these events feature a risky but rewarding coin toss. In the name of fairness, the majority of them are skippable.
- Are you afraid of losing your game progress to an unlucky miss? There's nothing to fear. Every map features FE11 inspired save points.
- The support system is not present in the game. However, in its place, there is a fixed number of interactions between characters per chapter.
- Custom portraits, music, status screen and much more to satisfy your aesthete side.
