In the video game Pandora’s Tower, Ende is the protagonist who seeks to save Ceres. The action role-playing game follows his attempt to break a curse afflicting her.
Pandora’s Tower was developed by Ganbarion and published by Nintendo for the Wii. It was released in Japan in 2011 and later in Europe and Australia in 2012. The story centers on Ende and Ceres, whose relationship is threatened after Ceres begins transforming because of a curse.
To help Ceres, Ende explores a chain of dangerous towers and obtains the flesh of the beasts within them. The game’s central mechanic connects combat and exploration with the urgent need to delay Ceres’s transformation. This gives the title a darker romantic-fantasy tone than the ancient myth suggested by its name.
The game is often confused with Pandora’s Tower: Until I Reach Your Heart, the title used in some regions. Ende is the player character, while Ceres is the character he is trying to save; mixing up those two names produces the most common answer error.
