About the Game

The Kingdom of Roevia was once known as a land of peace – until the Great Invasion. They are now faced with monsters from the Deep! Many great heroes rise to the occasion, ready to hold the hordes back from the capital or die trying!
You, however, just hope to keep the lights on while living in the City...

Every hero needs a good weapon, and you’re here to supply just that!

Trade goods with the heroes who visit your storefront, juggle gold & inventory, and hopefully earn enough money to pay the treatments for your sickly mother.

But be wary!
Each decision made can impact the outcome of the war, whether that be to end this once and for all, or to selfishly prolong the conflict…

-- -- --

  • Drag items from your inventory to the Sell slot to equip the heroes and earn money

  • Hold [Tab] to open the map to see the outcomes from the heroes battles, as the blue heroes take back control.

  • As the survivors return, they'll force you to buy the items from them to refill your stock.

  • The moment your fortune dips below zero, panic mode kicks in.
