+# About
+
+Molko's Adventure is a 2D solo RPG game and an API to build more RPG games. It
+is designed with the following characteristics:
+
+- Turn based battle. Similar to old RPG games battle operate on a dedicated game
+  state where the player and enemies select actions to perform when the member
+  is ready to play.
+- Tile based maps using scrolling and pixel granularity movements.
+- Theme system to allow customization of some user interface components.
+- Set of predefined dialog windows to control the game.
+
+While the API is flexible and powerful enough to create different games, it is
+still kept as simple possible without cluttering the API with dozen of
+abstraction and generics all over the place. This means that there are
+predefined kinds of character status (poison, slow, etc) along with kind of
+spells (earth, neutral).
