How it feels

a turn-based fantasy strategy game with fast pacing, deep faction-specific mechanics, and procedurally generated maps that encourage replayability.

What players say

Players love the chaotic and punishing strategy, where losing early to a random event is part of the fun. The factions are wildly different and deep, but the game offers no tutorial and is not for everyone. Some players note the lack of split-screen co-op despite being listed on the store page.
