Welcome to the official website of Roots of the Ancients, a video game designed to transport you back in time to the age of the Proto-Indo-Europeans.
By following the adventures of two twins, Gwen and Lucas, you will interact with the locals in their native tongue, perform epic quests for the gods, and battle monsters from the folklore of the rich Indo-European tradition.
This project is produced by Andrew Miles Byrd, Brenna Reinhart Byrd, both of the University of Kentucky, and George Landon, the head of the EKU Gaming Institute, along with the help of whole host of scholars and gaming experts from around the globe.
