You manage a city, lead troops in destructible battles, and explore a procedurally generated fantasy world as a battlemage seeking vengeance.

What players say

Players are split on this 2022 release. Many say the developers abandoned the game shortly after launch, leaving it buggy and often unplayable. A smaller group enjoys the blend of 4X strategy, city building, and wizard FPS combat, comparing it to Mount & Blade, but they acknowledge its clunkiness.
