About the Game

Edge of the Blade is a roguelite grand-strategy autobattler.

Become the head of the Nine-Tailed Clan and an exiled warlord, fighting to reclaim your stolen honor and city.
Become the chieftain of the Oni, marching to bring even greater slaughter and destruction.
Become the Khan’s royal guard, taking the field to bring Cheonggu to its knees.

Choose one of three completely different factions and plunge into war in pursuit of your own goal.

Set a war objective each week, capture strongholds, and claim rewards.
The war begins in spring and ends with a final battle in winter.

The fate of Cheonggu rests in your hands.

Cheonggu’s cities, fortresses, and farms have been reduced to ruins by civil war and invasion.

Each week, choose a war objective and advance toward its completion.
Recruit talent in cities, reorganize your army at fortresses, and requisition food from farms to prepare for the next war.

Battles unfold as real-time autobattler encounters.

Deploy units within your supply budget and destroy the enemy supply depot.
Turn the tide with powerful hero skills, and reshape the flow of battle through strategy.

Those who command the enemy armies have invaded Cheonggu for reasons of their own.

Each week, as diplomatic envoys and calamities arrive, you must choose whether to fight, join hands, or ignore them.
There are always three choices. The decision is yours.
