Textylia is a decidedly retro, text-based RPG built entirely using ASCII/CP437 characters — there no graphics, no texture maps, just a casual adventure inspired after classic turn-based rpg games for mobile.

Lead a party (Warrior, Mage, Healer, Thief) through a realm with random encounters, mini bosses and quests.

Most everything you see in the game — enemies, terrain, menus, attack and spell effects — is rendered using text characters! 

The only image in the game is the app icon (I tried but couldn't help it)!
