About the Game

⚠ Development Notice

All screenshots and videos were captured from a pre-alpha build. The game is under active development, and all visuals, gameplay, animations, UI, and content are subject to change.

Half a millennium has passed since the fall of the Cult of the Free Mind, yet its whispers echo from the shadows once more. What was long believed to be nothing more than legend is beginning to take physical form.

Farreach has fallen into bloodshed, paranoia, and tyranny.. You are Edfred, the bastard son of a local lord, who must earn the right to restore his family's legacy and prepare its people for what is relentlessly drawing near.

Restore a Fading Legacy

Your journey begins not with power, but with earning the right to wield it. Win the trust of your people, unite allies under your banner, and transform a crumbling settlement into a stronghold capable of withstanding the coming chaos.

Manage your settlement, balance the needs of its people, the demands of the nobility, and your limited resources. Recruit and develop your own guard companies to reclaim the surrounding lands and gradually restore your family's legacy.

Deep Turn-Based Tactical Combat

No class restrictions—only the freedom to experiment. Combine skills, spells, and magical items to create a playstyle that is uniquely your own.

Take advantage of elevation, terrain, and interactive battlefields. Manage your party's morale and shatter your enemies' morale, and prepare carefully before every encounter.

The World Moves On

Events will not wait for your decisions. Events move forward relentlessly, and your choices determine not whether they happen, but what their consequences will be.

In a world where the line between good and evil has long since faded, every choice comes at a cost. Allies may become enemies, while former enemies may become unexpected allies.

Beyond Good and Evil

Everyone you meet carries secrets from the past, old wounds, and hidden motives. The past has left scars on everyone, and personal convictions often outweigh any sense of right or wrong.

In this world, it is never easy to tell who is a friend—and who is the real monster.

 

Will you preserve order in a world falling apart, or let the Blight consume your very soul?
