About This Game

Experience a turn-based rogue-lite RPG where Arthurian legend clashes with cosmic horror. Recruit a squad of three mortal heroes and spiritually guide them on a perilous journey from Albion to Jerusalem. Explore a dark medieval world teetering on the edge of apocalypse, trade with merchants, enhance your heroes, and dig up ancient relics. Seek the scattered fragments of your soul across the multiverse and strive to save as many realities as possible. Immerse yourself in a narrative written by Jonas and Verena Kyratzes, inspired by Arthurian legend, the Matter of France, and Al-Andalus history with a dark twist. Engage in tactical squad-based combat against human and demonic foes by using cover, ambushes, and skill synergies. Navigate the regions of Albion, Marca Hispanica, and Al-Andalus, choosing between dangerous routes for legendary rewards or safer passages. Manage your resources, negotiate, fight, and accept that your choices and deaths are permanent. Spend Renown to level up heroes, choosing between random skills or attribute boosts to optimize your party. Leap between parallel dimensions where history and encounters shift with every jump; defeat is merely the beginning of a new adventure. Find towns to upgrade gear or discover hermit artisans in the wilderness, equipping yourself against the deepening darkness. Discover magical items, from peasant charms to Arthur's own legendary sword, available for purchase or earned through cleverness and heroism. Collect Soulstones to unlock spells and retain your magical knowledge across dimensions. As the one true Merlin, bear the eternal burden of standing against the void; saved worlds last forever, while lost worlds are gone for good.
