About the Game

Create a buzzing village and become a powerful enough wizard to defend it in this RPG inspired city builder!


You're a wizard who got banished from their home because they rivaled the ruling wizard in power. What you gonna do, that's wizard rule right there. Banished citizens are sent to the Arclands - a treacherous collection of islands inhabited by monsters which are attracted to everything magic. That's bad for you and your followers, so the only way to survive is to grow and fortify your village. You will see it grow from a loose collection of rugged tents to a heavily fortified city, attract other banished refugees and discover the secrets of the Arclands.

  • Create your own dream RPG Village in a living world - no static boring maps here!
  • Create your main character, level them up and learn spells to both smite your foes and help your village
  • Explore the Arclands, bring home rare resources and magic artifacts
  • Display your strongest artifacts on altars - some shoot at enemies, others grow trees around them or morph all your sheep into alpacas
  • Get to know all sorts of banished people and make them join your village
  • Even if your city falls: Rescue some followers and resources, get experience for how well you've done and try again

Build, defend, explore and uncover deep mysteries.
