Action RPG / Alchemy Tycoon — In Development
ALYRIA
Alchemy is power. Legacy is everything.
About the Game
Alyria is our debut title — the game Iron Pillar Studios was founded to build. It's a third-person action RPG fused with tycoon mechanics, set in a world where traditional magic is declining and alchemy has become the dominant force. After inheriting nothing but a broken cabin, a family legacy of elixir-craft, and a world demanding taxes, you fight your way up through God of War–inspired combat, master a deep alchemy system, trade at fortified outposts, and build an elixir empire across a handcrafted 4km × 4km open world. With an Arcane-influenced painterly art style, WoW-inspired skill trees, and a systems-first design philosophy — every mechanic is justified by lore, every ingredient behaves consistently, and every world detail serves the experience.
Features
- God of War–inspired third-person combat with fluid combos and parry mechanics
