❤ Extensive Character Customization

Players can freely choose skills from a wide variety of 17 different disciplines, such as Hunter, Arcanist, and Necromancer. This allows for immense build diversity, as you can create unique hybrid characters that combine abilities from different specializations. You earn skill points as you level up, which you can use to unlock new skills or upgrade existing ones. Equipping multiple skills from the same discipline also provides passive bonuses, encouraging you to thoughtfully construct your character build. Importantly, you can freely respec your character's skills, talents, and attributes at any time outside of combat, enabling seamless experimentation with different playstyles.

❤ Tactical Turn-Based Combat

The core gameplay revolves around turn-based tactical combat encounters. Each of your character's turns grants a set number of action points that you can spend on moving, attacking, or using skills. The combat system rewards careful planning and positioning, as you must consider the strengths, weaknesses, and special abilities of both your own character and the enemy monsters. Enemies come in a variety of types, each with their own unique behaviors and attack patterns, often requiring you to adapt your tactics and leverage the right skills and abilities to defeat them. The combat is described as "deadly, but not discouraging," striking a balance between challenge and fairness.

❤ Progression and Loot

As you progress, you will accumulate a wealth of loot, including weapons, armor, and accessories that can be equipped to enhance your character's stats and abilities. The game features a crafting system, where you can create and upgrade your gear using collected resources. In addition, there is a relic system, where you can socket powerful items into your character, providing unique bonuses and effects. Leveling up these relics becomes an important part of character progression. The loot system is designed to be constantly engaging, with you frequently finding new and interesting gear upgrades to pursue, further encouraging experimentation with different equipment setups.

❤ Diverse Game Modes

Beyond the main campaign, the game offers several additional game modes that provide varied challenges and gameplay experiences. These include Patrol Missions, a series of increasingly difficult, randomized combat encounters; Nightmare Scenarios, high-level missions where enemies are significantly more powerful; Treasure Hunts, minesweeper-style maps where you must navigate and uncover hidden treasures; and Dream Mode, a roguelike-inspired mode where you build a character from scratch and attempt to reach a final boss. These alternate game modes cater to different player preferences, whether you enjoy the thrill of high-stakes challenges or the loot-chasing grind of repeated encounters.
