Azada is a series of games created by Big Fish Games (who made both ''Azada'' and ''Azada: Ancient Magic'') and Creator/ERSGameStudios (who made ''Azada: In Libro'' and ''Azada: Elementa''). The first two games have the {{player|Character}} being sent to help a man named Titus free himself from an ancient book in order to stop an evil djinn. The ERS games are about Titus, guardian of Azada, asking the protagonist to save his world from destruction.

* ''Azada'': The protagonist is in a weird library, where they encounter a man named Titus. Titus is magically trapped inside of a book, and has been for some time, and requests the protagonist's assistance in freeing himself. Once he has been freed, Titus requests help in another case.
* ''Azada: Ancient Magic'': The protagonist needs to go into books of classic tales and help the characters inside. Moreover, Titus also warns the protagonist that some of the characters are not what they appear to be. The end of the game lead to a SequelHook and a ToBeContinued message for a third game (''Azada: Adventures'') which never came to fruition.
* ''Azada: In Libro'': A different protagonist is summoned to Prague, to claim a legacy left to them by a distant relative. However, they find themselves falling into a trap door in the mansion where they meet up with Titus, who has chosen them to save Azada from total destruction.
* ''Azada: Elementa'': The final adventure takes place in New York City, where Titus's uncle, Panoptes, has somehow become a very rich CEO in the real world. The protagonist needs to travel into Azada and uncover how Panoptes has achieved his wealth, in order to free Azada from his tyranny once and for all.
