How it feels

A deliberate, story-heavy tactical RPG where you guide characters through a politically charged medieval fantasy conflict.

What players say

Players praise the Tactics Ogre-inspired gameplay and class system, but nearly all warn that the story ends abruptly and the game is unfinished. Many report bugs, crashes, performance stutter, and incomplete localization, leading to a split between those who see potential and those who advise waiting for a full release.
