Endless Idle RPG Gameplay
Your heroes will always fight so it's very easy to play. Use each hero's rage ability when it's fully charged to lay waste to your enemies. Timing is important.
Fight Powerful Bosses
There are many unique bosses, each with their own abilities that you must learn to counter. The right team of heroes is critical to your success.
Find Powerful Items
Items provide global bonuses to all of your heroes. Rare items also have unique bonuses that than turn the tide of battle in your favor, but you must choose which items to equip. There are tons of swords, axes, spell books, runes, and sets of armor to find around the world and in challenging dungeons and deadly raids.
Easy to Play, Difficult to Master
It's easy to start playing, battles happen automatically and never stop! But don't be fooled, to progress far into this game you must learn how to construct the best team of heroes for the given challenges you are faced with.
Earn Progress While Not Playing
You always gain gold even if you aren't playing the game! This is a key feature of idle games. When you come back to the game, get all your offline gold and level up your heroes a ton. Now you can breeze through the next set of levels. After you use the Portal of Renewal for the first time you will even get stage progression while offline.
How to Play
- You will begin with one hero. Let him battle while you collect gold. Level up your hero and recruit new heroes as they become available. Keep battling and leveling up.
- Eventually the monsters will become very difficult. This is a good time to leave and come back a bit later. You will still collect gold even when you aren't playing, so when you come back you can level up a ton and progress very quickly.
- Once things are really difficult, tap the Portals tab and use the Portal of Renewal. This is the 'prestige' system. You will reset to stage 1. Your heroes will reset to level 1, however you will gain shards. Use these to rank up your heroes, giving them extra power.
- Just keep doing this over and over. This is the nature of idle games! They are really fun. There's lots of other things to do also, explore the game! The frontier is endless, see how far you can get!
Note: This game DOES have in-app purchases, but we make sure to give away tons of gems for free. You get gems for beating bosses and completing hero quests (there are over 1,500), plus there are free gem boosts you get every day just for showing up. As long as you don't go crazy with spending gems you should always have enough to buy some boosts.
