About This Game

TL;DR: Be the villain! This game will tickle that action-magic-fantasy-nerve, and if you are looking for hours of entertainment: give this game a try!

A fast-paced, yet tactical, action-roguelite!

Storm castles with hordes of undead!

...or turn the Empire against itself!

...or just smash it all with brute force!

Detailed features: (so far, as more will be added)

  • 6 playable characters, each very different from the next. Each has six unique spells, six unique passive skills, and there are 12 base skills anyone can choose from.

  • Terrain matters: Fires spread rapidly on grass, water can be frozen, pits can be fallen into.

  • Wild skill combinations, allowing for completely unique playthroughs.

  • Unique items with randomized qualities, exponentially adding combos and variety to the game.

  • 50 Steam Achievements, which offers meta-progression!

  • Each playthrough is a mini-campaign, starting at a small village and ending in the halls of the emperor's castle. The path will vary, taking you through magical glades, towns, fortresses, or dwarven mines.

  • New game mode: Last Stand - Survive as long as you can during relentless attacks!

  • 9 unique bosses!

  • Dozens of enemies, each with variable stats and traits.

  • Hand-pixeled coziness, details, and indie warmth!

  • A unique and adventurous original soundtrack.

  • Hours of fun at a cheap price!

All of these features will be expanded upon: more characters, spells, item abilities, areas, enemies, bosses, the soundtrack, etc. Stay tuned!
