Ok, so story-wise.. fairly clear.armor came first. There weren't any fantasy elements then, those were just coming in, second son and last man should've started later second son being after since the brother dies. Rouge royal happened before last man, as it was a solider training sim, and we see trained soldiers there, Drunk is hard to place, should be around last man, I would just maybe a bit before, as their being more secretive there. Same with join. Betton appears in a name is earned, so that happens after last man He's seen using a sword there. Finally, we get to the fantasy saga, A few problems start propping up, Armor features a certain demon dying who appears in last man, So armor has to be after that then. but the mysterious artifact man appears there.(the one who seemed most likely to be paul) So, lets assume there's someone else. and move armour to after last man,(doesn't make as much sense but sure,) netton dies. back to the fantasy saga, this time its very easy. Death percent 2(wizard is cursed) out of time(wizard uncursed) from the ashes(golbin defeated) death percent(new person holds artifact)/ journey to hell(I admit I couldn't be bothered to play this one, but its obvious goblin is the main character.) the story seems to be about an organization that secretly seals artifacts, collecting them, and people being recruited. simple really.
Thanks for playing all of the games! It sounds like you really enjoyed them. Interesting take on the timeline, two questions to ponder:
1. Guns exist in games like Last Man Standing, and Second Son. So why not in the games you have placed later?
2. When does 'A name is earned' claim that it takes place?
Guns were found to be useless in the armor game, and society didn't exactly seem to be at a great place at that point. Plus there's that weird artifact in joining together, Maybe that did something? And for the second. that can be said for a lot of the games honestly. It's more of a base assumption by the fact it's in the list of "canon" games. Though I will admit I don't recall seeing the magic sword after that. I only placed it where it was because benton is suddenly using a a sword in the ashes. It probably makes sense that this was one of the experiments that happened after the goblin was defeated. but.. Honestly, that felt like a cop out to me to say that since the lack of magic sword was the only justification I could come up with. Plus, benton was originally against the organization and even got rid of 2 of their operatives. They need to reconcile somehow. and the order of events must have to be in that order since bentton first appears in last man.

INSTANT TIMELINE CONNECTION!!!!
Death Percent 2 -> Out Of Time -> From The Ashes
Wow. I have loved playing all twelve and had fun with the storyline. I have commented on quite a few of these and when I checked to see if you had made the last one, I was excited to see this. I have one question, what happened to the person with the golden gun (that he got from the devil)? I may have missed or forgotten something but I wasn't sure if that plot had been finished or not. I was very happy playing all of the games and wish this game was longer!!
Thanks for the feedback! I really appreciate the encouragement!
The man with the golden gun plotline as well as a few others are still unresolved. Even though I finished my challenge I still plan on continuing the story some in future games! I'll try to identify them if they are apart of the project or not for clarity. Thanks for playing all of them!
Yeah! they were all fun and I enjoyed it quite a lot. I look forward to playing more games of yours!
Really cool game! Very well done!
