In her quest, she is helped by various gods, who also double as voice-over narrators throughout the game. The action-adventure-puzzle-platformer not only draws heavily on the country’s ancient epics (as the name would suggest), but also zealously presents its vision.

The game is out on Nintendo Switch, PC, PS4 and Xbox One.
