About This Game

Purchase Mercenaries

Recruited from the Gladiator Den.
Each one is unique, randomly rolled base stats, and marked by a single trait.

  • Level Up

  • Item Find

  • Craft

Quest Run

The world is broken into tile-based battles across a 6x13 grid. Most tiles will pit you against monsters. Others offer treasures.

Hidden deep within each biome lies a secret dungeon, sealed behind a key. Conquer it, and you’ll push into the next realm.

Survive the journey through four distinct biomes.

Sewer Run

Descend into the rotting underworld.
Face enemies armed with randomized gear, and push ever deeper.
