Idle Squire is an idle roguelite RPG that runs quietly in the corner of your desktop.
Every time you press a key, your squire attacks. Type an essay, code, or chat – each keystroke lands a strike. At first you’ll be faster than your squire, but with upgrades, artifacts, and talents, they’ll learn to keep pace… and eventually take over parts of the grind on their own.
