Kya: Dark Lineage follows the journey of Kya, a young woman sent to a mysterious kingdom with her brother Frank. Upon arrival, she is in for a discovery – her father, Brazul, has become an evil ruler, turning the once friendly Natives into the ruthless Wolfen. Kiya sets out on a journey to free the Natives, find her brother or sister and, navigating difficult terrain, return home. The third-person adventure platformer features Kiya as she navigates a variety of environments, engages in combat, collects resources, and solves challenging puzzles. Among her abilities is the ability to purify wolf cubs, returning them to their original state.

The appeal of the title lies in the combat system, which provides users with a whole repertoire of attacks and combos. In addition, Kiya wields a unique boomerang-like weapon, the jamgut, which gives her additional strategic subtlety. Traveling through this setting, users solve multifaceted problems set before them by the evil Brazul. The narrative unfolds smoothly, forcing gamers to dive deeper into the unfolding saga. The appeal of Kya: Dark Lineage is not only its exciting plot, but also its subtle gameplay mechanics that require strategic thinking and quick reflexes.
