Dark Ruins
In a ruin invaded by Ancient Gods, play as a Breeder. Grow warriors, collect genes/gear, and lead a 4-man squad in top-down RTS combat. It’s an "RTS Darkest Dungeon" focused on deep cultivation. I couldn't find a game like this, so I built it! Explore, build, and conquer.

About This Game

In a civilization left in ruins by an invasion of Ancient Gods, you play as a Breeder. Collect genes and gear, cultivate powerful warriors, and assemble a 4-person squad to explore the desolate wastes and uncover the secrets of the Ancient Gods.

  • Combat System: Real-Time Strategy (RTS). Control 4 heroes and build your ultimate squad by mixing and matching classes, bonus skills, gear, and relics.

  • A Twist on Traditional RTS: Even if you want a hands-off approach, a built-in AI will automatically control your heroes for you (unless you disable it). You can sit back, relax, and watch the squad you've built battle it out.

  • Accessible Micro-Management: Experience a combat system reminiscent of DOTA, commanding multiple heroes like in the classic Warcraft III custom map Chenghai 3C. However, thanks to the customizable AI, you won't be left feeling exhausted by relentless micromanagement.

  • Ultimate Build Freedom: As long as you have enough Willpower, you can equip an unlimited number of relics! Freely switch classes on the fly and tweak your builds with endless modifications.

  • Massive Replayability: Enjoy a massive campaign with an endless stream of enemies. Similar to Darkest Dungeon, you will dispatch heroes on mission after mission to gather resources for you. Treat them as mere expendables, or carefully nurture them into elite warriors—the choice is yours.

  • Rich Content: The game features 9 chapters, 9 distinct biomes, over 100 enemy types, 50 random events, 9 classes, 200 relics, and countless equipment affixes. With an expansive tech tree for continuous town upgrades, your journey will never get stale. Employ grand strategies—like acquiring and launching tactical nukes—to instantly alter the battlefield.

In short, this is a game that fuses the very best elements of RTS, RPGs, and dungeon crawlers.

I have never found an RTS game on Steam where you control multiple heroes specifically to grind for loot—this will be your very first experience of its kind! Unlike short custom maps, this game offers a long-lasting experience, and I will be continuously updating it.

This is going to be a fascinating journey, don't you think?
