Ashbourne is an action role-playing adventure set in the 15th century in a parallel reality, with no real states present in the world at that time. The environment and architecture will repeat the reality of those times. In many ways, inspired by a similar franchise - Mount and Blade. The game does not have a cooperative or multiplayer mode, there is only one option - passing alone. There is a change of day and night, weather conditions, as well as dynamic lighting.
The main character, which gets under the control of the gamer, does not have the ability to customize his own appearance, as is often the case in RPGs. It was created in advance and named by Alexander Marshal. The protagonist is one of the knights of the Endewein Empire, a powerful state that includes a large number of lands and fortresses. The tasks present in Ashbourne are divided into two types: story and additional. The second ones are not required to pass, but only dilute the main assignments. Also, gambling in taverns located in any castle provides a break from the affairs of the empire.
The gamer can influence the course of the quests by choosing dialogues in the dialog box that opens every time after starting a dialogue with the characters under the control of artificial intelligence. A good reputation with the NPCs will make it possible to get better offers from merchants, because as you progress, there is a lot of loot, especially from defeated enemies. It must be sold or exchanged for what the player personally needs, for example, for a new sword or the fastest horse.
