How it feels

A methodical fantasy 4X experience where you build and customize a civilization to challenge a dominant evil overlord.

What players say

Players compare it to a stripped-down Fallen Enchantress: Legendary Heroes that is easier to get into but feels shallow and unfinished. Crashes and bad pathfinding are common complaints, while others find the hero questing and unit progression satisfying for a few hours.
