About the Game

Embark on the journey of Curist, a leader betrayed, leaving an entire city cursed by a devastating plague. You must join forces with citizens granted supernatural abilities by a magical elixir to hunt down the treacherous rogue wizard and heal those in need. Explore a dangerous 2D side-scrolling world filled with mystery and adventure.

Dive into deep strategic combat with a 4-character linear formation. Every hero marches forward continuously, and every clash with the enemy triggers a knockback effect that directly impacts the team’s position and gameplay tempo. You must carefully plan your lineup from front to back to utilize position-specific passive buffs and time your Ultimate Skills to manage distance, ensuring the enemy never reaches your most vital characters.

Optimized for an easy-to-play Idle RPG experience, the game still demands critical tactical decisions—whether timing skills to halt the enemy's advance or adjusting your squad to counter the physics-based knockback system. Enjoy smooth, cross-platform gameplay on both PC and Android, featuring a character progression system that makes your team stronger with every step of the journey.
