The Legends of Owlia is a side-scrolling action-adventure game. Players control a young owl named Owlia on a journey to restore peace to her homeland. The game features 2D platforming with flying mechanics, enemy encounters, and collectible items.

Once upon a time, in a world far beyond imagining, six great owls brought forth a land called Owlia. Together, they reigned in peace and wisdom for eighty thousand years. However, their pride in the beautiful land and skies of Owlia led them to forget the vast seas below.

Mermon, King of the Mermen, often rose to the surface to gaze upon the land of Owlia. His desire for sunlight, open skies, and green forests grew until he decided the seas were no longer enough for him. One by one, he endeavoured to summon the six great owls, sapping their powers of flight and empowering his minions to rise towards the land of Owlia and claim it as his own.

However, one great owl eluded him: Silmaran, the White King. Soaring high above the land of Owlia, and watching Mermon’s forces grow in power, he searched for someone who might answer his call, rescue the great owls, and restore the land of Owlia.

Guide the heroine Adlanniel and her owl companion Tyto as they set out to free the great owls and defeat Mermon, King of the Mermen.
