About the Game

Join forces with a friend in this asymmetric co-op multiplayer action-adventure game. Explore a medieval fantasy land teeming with devolved dragons. Engage in skill-based combat, take on epic boss battles, solve cooperative puzzles, and enjoy lighthearted comedy.

Wrongfully branded as criminals by the very kingdom they serve, Helena and Jarel find themselves on the run, desperate to clear their names. Helena, once a revered royal guard, and Jarel, a roguish burglar with a knack for trouble, are thrown together in a race against time. Navigate treacherous caves and cursed jungles in a daring quest to find the lost prince Felix, and unravel the mysteries that plunge the realm into chaos

Explore A Beautiful Medieval Fantasy Land



Journey through a breathtaking medieval fantasy realm where magic echoes among ancient ruins. Encounter mysterious devolved dragons, traverse lands scarred by kingdom rivalries, and unravel the mystery behind "The Wither," a deadly disease that is spreading throughout the continent, threatening its very existence.

Fight Challenging Enemies And Bosses



Engage in intense, skill-based combat where every foe presents a unique challenge. As Helena, dominate in close-quarters with masterful melee, or choose Jarel to strike from afar with unmatched precision. And when the dust settles, test your mettle against formidable bosses that demand teamwork and strategy.

Solve Puzzles Together



Dive into intricate cooperative conundrums tailored for two. With puzzles designed around the unique strengths of Helena and Jarel, success hinges on seamless teamwork. Face challenges that demand collaboration, where going it alone is not an option.

Befriend Devolved Dragons



Discover the whimsical descendants of once-majestic beasts. As magic waned, these dragons transformed into enchanting, fairy-tale-like creatures, each brimming with its own unique charm. Among these enchanting beings lies the chance for one to accompany you on your journey. Interact, befriend, and even pet them as you traverse a land where magic's echo still lingers.
