In a dark fantasy world threatened by a rising flood, you guide a hero through dangerous lands toward the Obelisk. Each run begins with choices for your culture, class, and religion, which shape your starting abilities and play style.
Fight through turn-based encounters using a small set of actions, including moving, attacking, standing still, and praying. Choose powers, collect weapons and armor, and combine their effects: one action can trigger spells, extra attacks, summons, healing, or other linked effects.
Death ends a run, while play unlocks more starting options and prestige classes to try. Victories open harder cycles, where enemies grow more dangerous as your hero develops faster, giving new builds a tougher test.
Players often enjoy the deep build experimentation: combinations of starting choices, powers, gear, and triggered effects can turn simple actions into elaborate chain reactions. Many also appreciate that runs are quick enough to test new ideas often, along with the game's distinctive retro fantasy atmosphere. Some players find the systems hard to learn or the combat too hands-off, so the streamlined style is not for everyone.
