About this game
⛏️ Train your skills
Mine ore. Fish. Smith your own gear, cook what you catch, pick a few pockets, work a farm. Every skill levels up the way you'd expect from an idle RPG, and you take each one as far as you want. No clock, no pressure. You play at your own pace.
⚔️ Fight your way up
You start out fighting Goblins and work your way up to a Green Dragon. It's a real fight, and you'll need everything you've made to win it. Build your gear, brew your potions, go kill it. What happens after that, you'll find out when you get there.
😴 It runs while you're gone
Close the game and it keeps going without you. Come back and it catches you up on up to 24 hours of everything that ran while you were away, and shows you a report of it. Same game whether you're watching or not.
🌌 There's more to it
The skills you start with aren't all of it. The longer you play, the more opens up, more to do and more reasons to come back. We're not going to spoil it here. You'll find it.
🎨 Make it yours
Six themes to play in: Cosmic Voyage, Crimson Forge, Emerald Grove, Cyberpunk Neon, Amber Sands, and Obsidian Void. It's a premium desktop app. One purchase, that's it. No ads, no energy timers, no microtransactions.
