Description
About This Game
The LORD OF CATASTROPHE has returned once again to bring misery to the land! Create your party of four CHOSEN HEROES, mixing and matching between six different classes. Battle the forces of evil across more than a dozen unique chapters, each with their own obstacles. But do not despair, for you possess the blessing of the GODDESS OF TIME. Defeat simply means a chance to tell the story again...

Your quest is a battle of attrition. Manage your HP, MP, and HUNGER as you chart a path through each chapter of the story. Encounter monsters, random events, treasure, and sometimes blissful nothing! The more battles you win, the more XP you gain, but face too many enemies and you may find yourself too weak for the BOSS. Spend your GOLD wisely, and don't forget to use those ITEMS!

Every point of damage matters in this simple, yet deep combat system. Plan your turns out carefully and CHECK the enemy's capabilities, or you may meet a swift end. Choose whether to LEVEL UP your party members evenly, or focus on a few favourites. Acquire dozens of powerful SKILLS as you progress towards your inevitable destiny.
