12 itemsAbout the Game
In times of war and chaos, humanity’s fate rests on the shoulders of a single warrior.
Play as Kalin, a fearless female warrior who stumbles upon an ancient dungeon now inhabited by goblins. What begins as a journey to deliver a vital message quickly turns into a nightmare - Kalin is trapped in a dungeon, and the fate of her mission hangs by a thread.
Unravel the truth behind their sudden unity. Throughout your mission, you’ll meet intelligent goblins and decide whether to make them your allies or your foes. Lead them - or crush them into submission. Choose your path carefully; your decisions may carry consequences you may not foresee.
Combat you’ve never seen before: Dive into a deep, fast-paced combat. Use three different stances, each with unique combat properties, to give your opponents the right answer.
Reactions matter: Carefully watch your opponents and choose how to answer. Parry their attacks, break their guard, push them to put them in disadvantageous position.
Deep combat: Each stance has its own unique properties ,and they gain new moves and properties as you level up. Unlock powerful moves and execute your enemies with style.
Stealth is an option: Avoid unnecessary risk by hiding in shadows and using the environment to your advantage. Stay alert—goblins possess a keen sense of hearing and smell. Use Feather Step to muffle your footsteps, and Stenchbane to suppress your body odor.
Brew potions to help your strategy: Find ingredients scattered around the dungeon and craft potions. Be it stealth, combat, or fast exploration, there is a potion suited to your needs.
Engaging non-linear story: The goblins have gained consciousness and their own motives. Uncover their secrets and decide their fate. Join their ranks and lead them to victory, or stop them before it’s too late. The choice is yours.
