The Last Contract

Game premise and structure

The Last Contract is a hand-crafted action RPG for PC set in a stylized world where you create a character as either a human or an orc. Your choices impact how different factions and characters interact with you, with various responses driven by whether your character is human or orc. The game eschews an open world structure in favor of a hub-and-spoke model, connecting distinct, self-contained realms filled with unique dangers and factions.

Character and skills

You develop your character’s abilities not through a point-buy system but by actively engaging in combat. Your skills grow based on your actions; for example, using a one-handed sword or bow frequently will improve your proficiency in those areas. The game includes seven mastery skills to specialize into, such as One-Handed, Archery, and Magic, along with a hidden Necromancy skill available to those who explore further.
