The world
Three places you will spend your hours
Procedurally generated and split into 8 biomes; the layout changes every time you start a new game.
The Vitromotus
The main dungeon: weird enemies, traps and bosses.
Emberville (the town)
The main hub. The more you rebuild, the more systems unlock and the more of the town’s story you hear.
The Creative Area (your Estate)
Your own space to build a home, grow crops, decorate and craft; all life-skill tools live here.
About the game
About Emberville
You wake with no memory inside the Vitromotus, an underground prison where death does not last. Fight your way through it, rescue the people of Emberville, and rebuild their ruined town with their help.
Combat is an action RPG with weapon combos and classes that share skills; around it sit gathering, crafting, farming and your own Estate. Cygnus Cross develops and publishes it, with CohhCarnage as Executive Producer.
