Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

Note: Games in Early Access are not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to play this game in its current state, then you should wait to see if the game progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“As a sandbox game, the adventure doesn’t end when the main story does. We’ll continue to add new items and content beyond the core storyline, giving players fresh goals and rewards to pursue long after the main adventure is complete.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“1 year”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“The Early Access version already includes the core gameplay loop—exploration, building, combat, automation, and boss encounters—so players can fully experience the foundation of the game.

For the full release, we aim to broaden and deepen that foundation with more content and systems. This may include additional biomes to explore, new bosses with unique mechanics, expanded automation features, and further progression systems for both combat and life skills. We also want to refine balance, polish the overall experience, and expand the world in ways that keep it fresh and rewarding for long-term play.

Our overall goal is to make The Adventurer’s Trial not just a sandbox with a main story, but a world that feels alive and worth returning to—whether you enjoy exploration, building, or teaming up with friends.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The Early Access version includes the core gameplay loop—exploration, building, combat, and boss hunting—but the game is not yet complete. Some features and content are still in development, and your feedback will help shape what comes next.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“We may gradually increase the price as new content and features are added, to reflect the expanded scope of the game.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“We plan to involve the community through the Steam forums and other feedback channels. Player feedback will help us balance gameplay, refine features, and decide which areas to expand during development.”

About This Game

Venture into a procedurally generated, boundless pixel-art world (spanning from -5000 to 5000 tiles), filled with opportunities—and lurking dangers. Explore, build, mine, farm, and hunt down unique bosses, either solo or with up to 3 friends in cooperative top-down adventures.

Features
Boundless exploration – Journey across an expansive top-down sandbox, from grassy fields to new biomes yet to be revealed. The world is procedurally generated, filled with secrets, resources, and enemies to discover.

Unique boss encounters – Hunt down powerful bosses hidden across the overworld, or craft special items to reveal their exact locations. Master their patterns, unleash your skills, and claim rare loot.

Diverse combat styles – Wield mighty swords, precise bows, or destructive wands—each with unique skills. When you fall, a personal loot chest is left behind for you alone to reclaim.

Build, automate, expand – Place walls, floors, and doors to shape your base. Set up miners, link them with conveyor belts, and use light automation to support your growing settlement.

Mining and crafting progression – Chop wood, quarry stone, and mine metals such as copper, iron, mithril, and adamantite. As soon as you gather a material, you’ll unlock new recipes to craft at your workbench.

Dual experience systems – Earn Combat EXP from fighting and Life EXP from gathering. Unlock combat skills or life skills to enhance your adventure.

1–4 player co-op – Host your own world and invite friends to join. Team up to explore, gather resources, and take down powerful bosses together—purely cooperative, with no PvP.

Early Access
The Adventurer’s Trial will launch in Early Access with its core gameplay loop—exploration, building, combat, automation, and boss hunting—fully playable. We plan to expand the game with additional biomes, new bosses, more automation features, and deeper progression systems, shaped by your feedback.

Face the Trial. Build a life worth defending—and the strength to defend it.

Keyboard controls only.
