About This Demo

A 2D strategy game in real time, fought across three lanes, TOP, MID and BOT, where you win with decisions, not frantic clicking.

Minions, towers and enemy waves push on their own. You choose where the gold goes, which lane to break and when to commit. Destroy the enemy base to win. Lose yours, and it’s over.

You can’t buy everything. Upgrade towers to hold a lane, or upgrade your base for more HP, faster gold and quicker spawns. Deploy Soldiers, Archers and Commanders where they matter, watching costs and cooldowns. Catapults hit structures only, so push them forward before the enemy plugs the gap. Often the match is decided before the armies even clash.

Allied champions
The campaign hands you new tools as you climb. The Warlock summons Wraiths, gathers fallen ghosts and turns them into Skeleton Warriors and Archers. From level 2, the Minotaur brings melee fury, a retreat and abilities that scale. From level 3, the Hero Archer delivers ranged DPS and smart kiting. Champions level up, earn XP and unlock skills in battle, with respawns, cooldowns and gold costs that punish poor timing. Later stages unlock more of the roster: up to five allied champions in a match, chosen by you.

Enemy bosses
Each campaign level raises the stakes. The enemy Minotaur presses melee with Bloodlust, Maze Master, Sharpened Horns and area Fury. From level 2, the Hero Archer answers at range with heavy arrows, regeneration and Multishot. From level 3, the Paladin tanks with Aura and Final Verdict. They switch lanes, level up and grow more dangerous as the fight stretches on.

Campaign and progression
This free demo includes 3 campaign levels. The full game releases with 10, and more levels are planned after that. Each level has its own waves, compositions and a soundtrack that moves from opening to clash to climax. Saves with profiles, unlocked stages and lasting progression. A tutorial inside the game with animated cards for every unit, structure and ability. Interface available in Italian, English and more.

1v1 online multiplayer
Same lanes, same gold, but the other side is a real player. Online 1v1 is included in this free demo. The campaign works offline; an internet connection is needed only for 1v1.

Lane pushing strategy in a MOBA spirit, drawn as highly stylized stickmen. Three lanes, economy, upgrades, siege units, up to five allied champions and a gallery of enemy bosses with AI and abilities that grow. Play the campaign against the AI or go 1v1 online, with camera pan, zoom and a minimap.

This free demo lets you play 3 of the 10 campaign levels shipping with the full release, plus online 1v1. More levels are planned after that. Feedback on balance, UI clarity and how the game feels to play is welcome, because it helps shape the full release.
