Steam post imageThe Legacy System and Chronicles have been forged and fully integrated.

Your completed realms no longer fade into a final score or a place on a leaderboard.

They now leave a lasting mark, shaped by your decisions, your persistence, and the paths you chose.

Steam post imageThe points you earn from completed realms become a currency used to build your own Legacy.

Tile by tile, every attempt moves the Legacy forward.

Over time, your actions form a unique composition, a reflection of how you played, how you adapted, and how far you pushed your realm.

Once you've built your Legacy, it rests in Chronicles.

Here, you can watch the exact memory of how your Legacy was built - every placement, every success, every step that led to the final Seal.

The Seal you achieve becomes the story you've built at a glance.
