## Description
_Bretonne Lais_ is a role-playing game loosely based on the Breton lays,
medieval European (mostly French or English) romance tales drawing inspiration
from chivalric stories and Celtic mythology and folklore. Rather than
presenting a single story the game is divided into several unrelated
scenarios, each involving Celtic legends and mostly focusing on supernatural
motives (floating islands, unicorns, popular Celtic figures such as Queen Mab,
etc.). The player can choose between several male and female characters with
pre-defined anime-style portraits, allocating points into their primary
parameters. Much of the game is played solo, though a few NPCs can join the
main character one at a time. Despite its Japanese origins the game takes cues
from Western RPG design philosophy, offering non-linear exploration of vast
interconnected areas. Battles take place on the same screen as exploration and
involve turn-based navigation and simple attack commands.
