About the Game

In the East of the politically-unbalanced region of Midland, there is a place where no city-dweller would dare tread; home of the Romer or 'People of the Wastes.' A stoic people of devout religious beliefs, the Romer wander the wastes seeking enlightenment from the gods, often falling prey to the many dangers of such a place. Play as one of these Nomadic peoples as he meets a city-dweller and begins to question all he has been taught.

There is no easy path here, only a brutal landscape that only the strongest will survive.
