How it feels

A thoughtful, tactical turn-based adventure where careful planning and faction choices drive a challenging fantasy campaign.

What players say

Players praise the gorgeous pixel art and voice acting, calling it a fresh take on King's Bounty and HoMM. The story and world building are highlights, but combat gets mixed reviews, some find it dull while others enjoy the deckbuilding twist. Early access leaves only one playable faction and some broken or missing features.
