What is Toward Dawn?

Toward Dawn is a single-player, 2D party RPG following Carys and her werewolf rescuer as they seek answers after her temple's destruction. You explore pixel-art environments, complete sidequests, and fight battles where breaking enemy poise cancels actions and increases damage. There are no random encounters or required grinding.
