You watched the story.
Now imagine stepping into it.
A new look at an old adventure. Gameplay footage is on its way.
REMEMBER WHERE IT ALL BEGAN?
The first shelter. The familiar faces. The feeling that something much bigger was waiting just over the next hill. Shadow of Israphel was more than a series to grow up with. It was a world you wanted to be part of.
This independent fan project is rebuilding that world as a playable Minecraft adventure. Familiar places, the original story, and Honeydew and Xephos by your side. One block at a time.

A NOTE FROM THE DEVELOPER
I'm a solo developer, serving full-time in the U.S. Army and raising a family. In the spare hours in between, I'm rebuilding a little piece of the world I grew up with.
This is a passion project, not a business. It'll take time, and I won't promise a date I can't confidently deliver. Thanks for being here while it takes shape.

Not yet. The project is in private development. There is no public download or announced release date.
The intention is to release it for free. I'm not accepting donations. Any eventual release will depend on readiness and the appropriate permissions.
