Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

Note: Games in Early Access are not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to play this game in its current state, then you should wait to see if the game progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“The game is still not fully finished yet, and its balancing also in need of player feedback from a wide range of gamers before it can be considered complete. We realized that QA and internal game testing couldn't anticipate or orchestrate all of those rich situations. Having a bit of additional player feedback while completing the game, will speed up the whole process from both sides.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Early access is expected to take about three months (with an early Q1 release date schedule).”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“The full version is planned to add the Story Mode to the game. The Early Access version will only come with a "Free Play Mode". Both of these modes should use the same gameplay system.


During the Early Access period, the game offers the core card deck-based, auto-battler hybrid gameplay with all its tactical nuances. Create a card deck and set up your units, buff them and position them strategically to prevent enemy units from advancing into your lane.
Various stages with exceedingly more difficult battles will be available during Early Access in the Free Play Mode.

Our plan for the full release is to adjust the gameplay system's balancing accordingly to the players' feedback, as well as adding the planned Story Mode, where you take the role of the Monarch, a regent of your god that is under attack by Archon hunters from all over the world.
For more information check out the game page's gameplay and synopsis texts.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“During the Early Access period the game will only include the Free Play Mode, which is basically just the gameplay. without the story. We are working on the story mode separately
The game has been well-received internally and at game shows, so we're hopeful that it will be good to go for release.

Basically the game has 16 rounds to reach the ending, and there are 4 major bosses.
Each round has multiple waves of enemies, and each of those waves has multiple turns.
Each of these waves have roguelike events popping up, and you can choose the various events (adding units, assessing builds for the game etc.)
Each wave would take 20 minutes to 45 minutes, up to one hour depending on play style.

In Early Access changes on balancing, difficulty, or game tempo might be adjusted, according to player feedback.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“The price will stay the same after the Early Access period has finished.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“Through the community, we hope to get feedback on the game's balance and fun factor. There are so many strategies that can be done with card and unit combinations in the game, and once players have tried them out, they can discuss what they liked and didn't like about them in the Steam forums. Both the publisher and the development team will be listening, and many of these things will be updated in-game.”
