Flare is a simple single-player Action RPG engine. Instead of being a general engine that handles many game types, this focused engine is small and easy to mod.

FLARE is an engine for one particular type of RPG: Singleplayer action RPGs from a isometric perspective (2.5D). It features many classic RPG mechanics: Attributes, skill levels, experience levels, abilities, mana, dialog systems, and so on.

The main game for FLARE is Flare: Empyrean Campaign

Flare: Empyrean Campaign is an action RPG set in a medieval fantasy world in which the protagonist is banished into the land of Empyrean and must prove your worth to escape damnation.

In the beginning of the game, the player gets to choose what race the in-game character should have. Each race has different abilities and skills (such as Strength, Health, Magic and Stealth). As the player completes missions and defeat enemies, the character will receive experience-points and level up. Leveling up will allow the player to improve skills and abilities of the character.

By completing missions and looting dead enemies, the player will collect gold. This can be used to purchase new equipment, weapons and armor at different traders.
