About the Game

Gnomes on The Roam is set in a world where a race of interdimensional gnomes that feed off sunlight have come to our world seeking our sunlight whether we like it or not. Their world has become uninhabitable as the Gnomes have harnessed and taken all of the energy from their sun causing it to extinguish. In true gnome fashion they decided to use the remaining sun power they had to travel dimensions to ours, they may not have come in peace, but we will send them back in pieces.
