How it feels

A sprawling, choice-driven fantasy RPG where player actions shape a persistent world, emphasizing crafting and moral decisions.

What players say

Players call it a wasted spiritual successor to Ultima Online, torn between classic RPG and MMO ambitions. Combat and UI are clunky, travel is a chore, and the most developed system appears to be the cash shop, the world feels dead and development is described as barebones, with updates focused on monetization rather than fixing half-finished systems.
