Below is an overview of the game via their Steam page:

Modify your characters represented by a custom dice. Exploration, combat, story events, camping – you will use dice everywhere, so think carefully about the appropriate equipment that will help you survive.

Manage up to 4 characters in your team. Even with the best equipment, watch out for the well-being of your companions – exhausted and defeated in battle characters receive fatigue points, and these, over time, lead to death.

Explore procedurally generated world and storylines resulting in an ever-changing adventure. Navigate through unexpected events as you traverse diverse landscapes.

Combat System

Roll your dice in tactical turn-based combat against the remnants of fallen adventurers and outlaws corrupted by magic.

Plan your route carefully, because the Wanderer’s Sigil will offer only a glimmer of safety amidst a hazardous path. As the strength of the Sigil weakens, your expedition will be more and more challenging.

Balance limited cargo capacity. Will you prioritize taking valuable treasures or ensuring you have enough items to set up one more camp?

Earn recognition through quests, ascend in the guild’s ranks, and unlock powerful upgrades.

In the aftermath of a magical cataclysm, strange and frightening places appeared where the emanation of power was strongest. Bizarre beasts and plants began to inhabit vast lands, forcing humankind to seek refuge in enclaves guarded by magical Sigils.

But not everyone has given up. Fearless souls known as Wanderers, all united by resilience, resourcefulness, and unwavering spirit, ventured beyond the safe walls of settlements. They started traversing dangerous lands to trade vital resources, carry news and search for clues about the magical devastation that changed the world forever.

And among them, you.

Strive to discover all the dark secrets of the world’s past. You might be the first to succeed.

Key features:

  • Procedurally generated world, characters and storylines
  • Customizable dice with synergy mechanic
  • Singleplayer, turn-based gameplay and combat
  • Gameplay-altering decisions
  • Resource management
  • A guild reputation system
