About the game
Zenith is an action RPG coated in humor. Adventuring! Exploring ruins! Saving the world! You know the drill. A single player game with an actual story. No oneiric or do-it-yourself crap. You won't need to piece the story together by yourself as if it was a swedish chair. We promise.

What a ridiculous, charming, entertaining little game! Rough around the edges and with a host of flaws, this game nonetheless made me laugh more than any other I remember.
