About the Game
Pick your mercenary, choose your hunt, and plan your route. Craft powerful cards in the Northwind Outpost, defeat formidable bosses, earn Legacy Points, and unlock new outpost services. Face fiercer foes and raise the Hazard Level in this forbidden land.
Tug-of-War Combat x Mana Management
Engage in Tug-of-War duels with every enemy instead of dealing direct damage. When attack becomes the best defense, build up your attack power and overpower foes to strike.
Mana doesn’t regenerate automatically—you manage it. Inspired by the Land system from Magic: The Gathering, your challenge isn’t just about combos; your available mana is determined by your strategy.
When removing cards is no longer the only way to refine your deck. The rewards you earn from battle become resources for card crafting at the Northwind Outpost. Infuse your cards with new abilities using gems, forge duplicates, smelt Mana cards to unlock stronger abilities, and merge similar cards to create even more powerful versions. Experience the thrill of discovering new combos and crafting the perfect one!
Rogue-lite Progression
Expand Northwind Outpost services using Legacy Points earned from defeating bosses. Each upgrade unlocks new strategic options. The more you play, the more your strategy evolves.
Discover powerful bosses and dangerous monsters as your Hazard Level rises. It’s not just you who grows stronger—the threats in this frozen land evolve too.
