Enter a world where the laws of nature work in strange new ways, allowing continents to orbit at different elevations around the planet. Living battleships float overhead and Junk Pirates roam the darkness. This is a world whose very Core is a living computer, quietly watching over the fruits of its master’s creation. On the Outer Shell Layer above, the ancient society of the Chosen live an extravagant lifestyle, consuming mass amounts of energy and dumping their waste onto the Layers below. They have discovered secrets about the world in which they live, and begin a descent towards the inner Core, caring not who gets in their way.

The Generation GapWhat our critics say

If you dig JRPGs but mainly play PC, you HAVE to check out Septerra Core from 1999. It's got this insane world-building across seven layers of a hollow planet, and the story is epic with a capital E. The turn-based combat system is unique, mixing real-time elements and a 'fate card' mechanic that keeps things fresh. It's got a huge cast of characters, a cool sci-fi fantasy blend, and just oozes that classic RPG charm. Totally underrated, IMO.

This PC RPG offered a unique, layered world. Seven distinct biomes revolved around a core. You explored these diverse environments. Its cast of characters was truly memorable. The combat system blended turn-based strategy with real-time elements, demanding thoughtful execution. And the story unfolded with epic scope. It felt like a lost JRPG gem, a truly imaginative virtual space for Western audiences to discover.
