At the core of the gameplay is strategic caravan management.

Reviewers laud this system as highly compelling, challenging players to balance multiple priorities and accept the harsh consequences of their choices.

❤ Navigate Complex Faction Relationships

Players must navigate the web of powerful factions that shape the Riven Realms, ranging from prosperous trading houses to criminal syndicates. Befriending one faction often means antagonizing others, forcing players to carefully manage their reputations and leverage these relationships to gain powerful rewards and boons. Reviewers highlight this as an essential strategic layer of the gameplay.

❤ Customize a Diverse Cast of Companions

Players can recruit companions to join their caravan, each with unique combat abilities, backstories, and personal quest lines. Upgrading and completing these companion quests not only enhances their capabilities but also provides deeper insight into the world and characters, further enriching the narrative experience.

❤ Confront Challenging, Dice-Based Combat

Combat encounters involve the player's companions facing off against a variety of humanoid and monstrous enemies. These battles are described as unforgiving, with positioning and support skills being crucial to success. Importantly, the combat system is dice-based, introducing an element of luck that can drastically impact the outcome - a feature that some players appreciate for its high-stakes nature, while others find it to be a weak point.
