A love-song to pulp fantasy tales of yore, 70s synth-prog-landscape oddities, and forgotten places, God of Blades is a gorgeous, visceral sidescrolling physics-based sword-fighting adventure.

Praise for God of Blades:

"God of Blades is one of my favourite experiences of the year in any medium." Owen Faraday, PocketTactics.com

"Loreseeker is my favourite use of locative gaming so far, and it's really, really simple, too. Take God of Blades to a local library and fire it up, and you'll discover you're allowed to unlock one of a few very special in-game swords just by being inside such a palace of knowledge." Christian Donlan, HookShot, Inc.

"...we were reminded of Shadow of the Beast for some reason -- probably because of the music and the setting... that's a very good thing." Chris Priestman, IndieGameMag

"The White Whale Games crew has gone above and beyond demonstrating their devotion to stories and literature, and [Loreseeker] is one of the most creative and brilliant ways they could have possibly conceived to get people to go to those incredible repositories of human knowledge known as libraries." - Brad Hilderbrand, Gamezebo

"With their upcoming title God of Blades, the small indie developer has created an intriguing mashup of iOS genres." - A.T. Faust III, AppAdvice.com
"God of Blades is dripping with style" - Jim Squires, Gamezebo

The dead king rises! Become a spectral warrior who has returned to defend his planet against a rampaging doom-cult and the devouring touch of the cosmic horrors they serve. Wrenching this world from the grasp of oblivion, the Nameless King wields phantom blades forged from the legends and heritage of a dying world.

Raise your blade, and rush into the darkness!

When it says visit a library, is that a thing in game? Or do they mean a real, actual library?
