About the Game

Your Gate - Your Rules!

The law is whatever your blade says it is. If a visitor seems suspicious, strike first and let the scribes sort out the details later. A few innocent casualties? Consider them the price of keeping the kingdom safe.

Take bribes, execute visitors or torture them with a variety of deadly traps. Juggle between your reputation, town prosperity, infection spread, common sense and your budget. It's your choice whether to be chaotic or lawful, but you have to feed your family!

Use special tools to see through visitors disguise. Gods can walk among us and it's better not to pull any jokes on them!
