Six Ages (Video Game)	comment	Six Ages is a series of games following up the cult classic King of Dragon Pass. Like KoDP, the series is about leading a clan in the primitive, fantastical world of Glorantha. Every entry takes place in a different era of Gloranthan history, enabling players to import "their" clan into successive games and significantly customize its culture. Ride Like the Wind: The first game, following a colony of Riders in the mythic Storm Age. It was released for iOS in June 2018, and was ported to PC and Mac on October 17, 2019.Premise: The sun god Yelm is dead, and the mighty empire your people once lived in is covered in ice. Your clan has escaped that fate and must now make a home in a new land, populated not only by fellow Riders but by their Wheel cousins and the barbaric Ramsâ€” worshippers of Orlanth, Yelmâ€™s murderer. Lights Going Out: The second game, set in the apocalyptic Great Darkness. Currently in development for iOS; a demo was released May 4, 2023, and the full game was released on August 21st of the same year.Premise: Glorantha is dying, and your gods with it. Everywhere the earth is withering, monsters emerging, and sunlight growing dimmer day by day. Never before has it been so hard to survive. But you are Berenethelli, and death is not an option. Somehow you will persevere through the darkness- as its stalwart foes, or desperate servants. The World Reborn: The third game, currently being conceptualized.The series has a website here.

And even the gods themselves. In fact, part of playing the game is getting the stats of future ring members high for when your current ring members die off. A successful player will have seen several generations pass in-universe.

Six Ages (Video Game) / int_20f689e9	comment	Adaptational Villainy: In RuneQuest sourcebooks, the Yelmic order that Orlanth dismantled was an abstract thing that nobody literally needed, and that people could live outside of. In Ride Like The Wind, the sky falls because Yelmic order isn't maintained. That's not a metaphor, that's an objective event that everyone in the valley sees and that beings other than Yelm- including Orlanth's people- are hurt by. Which makes Orlanth's unwillingness to accept he did anything wrong (until the Lightbringers' Quest, over a century later) look a lot greyer. note In fairness, it's possible that Orlanth didn't do the specific killing that caused the skyfall- the bronze spear seen could just as well have belonged to Vadrus.

An endgame Rider clan can regularly fend off the Ram raids that terrified it a few generations ago.

You can murder guests in some cases (usually the interface won't even give you the option), but doing so will make your clan magic and reputation drop like a stone — no matter how disrespectful they were being. In addition, offering hospitality is often potentially rewarding, as most of the foreigners who ask for it, or to be adopted into your clan, have something useful to teach you if you help them. For example, the Dara Happans can teach you how to worship Venurtera, Yeleni can teach you better hunting techniques, Votanki can persuade dog spirits to help you, Ergeshites can help your goats...

Six Ages (Video Game) / int_6ec989d8	type	Guide Dang It!
Six Ages (Video Game) / int_6ec989d8	comment	Guide Dang It!: Like all RuneQuest games, Six Ages prioritizes immersion and setting verisimilitude over giving the player actual concrete stats to work with. Players are never outright told what the endgame is, so as to make the plot twist around it and the decision of allying with the Rams more emotionally impactful. The descriptions explaining what spirits and treasures do are vague at best. How useful is a magical brazier that "aids you against Darkness"? Is it more valuable than another treasure you can trade it for? What the hell is the Antelope spirit, who "lets our heroes and their horses leap into the air" good for? If your explorers meet other explorers, you will be asked if you want to "waylay" them. Waylay here means attack. The "low clan magic" event, unlike every other event that involves hurting another clan, does not give you an opportunity to choose who you want to kidnap from. If you're unlucky, you can accidentally break an alliance by doing this. Some ritual blessings last for the rest of the game, others for only a few years. You're not told this, or which ones are temporary until you pick. Many shamans look androgynous, which can be a problem if you've just started a ritual that requires someone of a specific gender and [clan's best magician] turns out to be incompatible. (Rituals cannot be stopped once they've started.) Some events let players choose multiple responses to them (such as the endgame marriage preparations); you're not told beforehand which. The game doesn't tell you that Beren has a hidden "heroism" score that gives him bonuses to certain tests. It is increased when he pulls off suitably heroic stunts or you perform actions appropriate to his heroic fate. Sacrificing at his birth also helps. This score also helps Redalda during the endgame.

You will also lose if Beren's bloodline dies out, as the magic sustaining Berenstead's walls will fail and your clan will be forced to abandon it.

Occasionally, characters drawn in the "divine" style appear in "normal" scenes, including a visit from the god Elmal, come to repossess the bones of his deceased herdsman so that he can have them forged into weapons, and the in-game appearance of Cenala, Hyalor's daughter by the elf goddess Aldrya. And secondhand events are sometimes shown in monochrome, like the blue tint of the scene where you first hear of the Daughters of Vingkot.

In Rider culture, the process of initiating girls into full womanhood involves them being "reborn from the dreaming cave", like some real-world Aborigine tribes.

There's also a Storm Court (worshipped by Rams) and a Darkness pantheon (worshipped by trolls). Some gods have counterpartsâ€”for example, all three have a god or goddess of trade—and some of those counterparts, like your Earth Queen Nyalda and Ernalda, Earth Queen of the Storm godsâ€”are so very similar that one might be forgiven for confusing them...

Six Ages (Video Game) / int_e2ccee25	comment	Animal Motifs: Horses: Obviously, Riders are strongly associated with Horses, symbolizing their strength, mobility and desire for freedom. Horses are also associated with the Wheels, but the Riders loathe them for using the horses to pull chariots instead of riding them. Birds: Eagles symbolize the royal power of the dead sun god Yelm. Riders revere them because their Top God Elmal is Yelm's son. They also revere Raven, a powerful trickster spirit. Sheep: The Ram people are the only sheep herders in the valley, as everyone else herds goats. Hence the nickname. The four Southern Ram Kingdoms each have an animal of their own: the Penentelli have ordeeds (a kind of antelope), the Vestantes have bears, the Forosilvuli have sakkars (sabertooth tigers) and the Infithtelli have mammoths.

Beren and Redalda are hit with this the hardest. Ultimately subverted; it turns out that the only thing holding the marriage back is the Riders' and Rams' own superstitions, and fate is, if anything, actively pushing for it to happen.

Six Ages (Video Game) / int_e6630c8b	comment	Gameplay and Story Integration: Towards the end of Beren's storyline, he becomes unavailable to lead missions, presumably to avoid derailing things with his death or absence at a key moment. This is neatly explained in-game with both Beren and your other nobles saying that he's too distracted by his personal life to represent the clan properly right now. Similarly, when Ayvtu is pregnant, she briefly becomes unavailable as an expedition leader, saying that she thinks she'd be all right but she promised the midwives that she would stay home.

You're supposed to honor the traditions of your ancestors, but one of those traditions is a willingness to adapt to changing circumstances.
