The spiritiual successor to King of the Dragon Pass, Six Ages: Ride Like the Wind ($9.99) is now up for preorder on the App Store. If the name doesn’t ring any bells for you, King of Dragon Pass ($9.99) is an old school role playing game that originally released in 1999. It hit iOS in 2011 and you can read Eli’s review of it here. Longtime TouchArcade readers and avid fans of the now sadly defunct RPG Reload will remember Shaun’s feature on it here. 19 years after King of Dragon Pass, the creators are back with Six Ages: Ride Like the Wind and you can watch the trailer for it below:
Releasing on June 28th, Six Ages takes place in Glorantha which is a fictional fantasy universe and it is set 2000 years before the King of Dragon Pass era. Since most of the original development team return here, expectations are pretty high. Expect more than 400 interactive scenes with varying out comes. This is also built for playing in bite sized segments with a robust automatic saving system and short episodes suitable for playing anywhere and anytime.

You can now pre-order it for $9.99 on iOS. This is a fully premium game with no in-app purchases. This art is going to look beyond gorgeous on a nice modern iPad display. It will also be making its way to more platforms sometime in 2019.


Very much looking forward to this. King Of Dragon Pass is one of the most immersive and daunting fantasy experiences I’ve ever played. Easy recommendation to anyone who loves fantasy lore and strategy. Glorantha, in which Dragon Pass and Six Ages takes place in, is one of my favorite fantasy settings.
Hopefully Six Ages is amazing. Preordered and looking forward to the experience!
Thanks for the heads up! I just pre-ordered!
Following your link brings me to the App Store page but the price is greyed out and I can't do anything. What gives? U.S. store.
Edit: though it says playable on iOS 9.0 and higher, to make the purchase you need to be on an iOS 11.2 and higher device. So I bought on phone and will play on iPad.
Can’t wait to play this! But man, this AND Pokémon Quest on the same day. Whew!
