Archer must unlock his power to defeat the evil Alchemist and save the Vale from tyranny.


Young Archer is a prisoner in the Alchemist's Tower.

Only together will their powers be strong enough to take on the might of the Alchemist's Guild and the world beyond the Vale.

Their thrilling adventures will change the Vale - and all England - forever.
