Sneak Peek Features

Somehow in a freakish happenstance (or was it?!), you find yourself snatched into The Endless Wyrd, a strange realm ruled and hunted by the ever-lurking Thing in the Dark. Alone and defenceless, you scavenge the perilous domain for powerful items and fight the denizens of the Wyrd. With every battle you grow stronger and more powerful, but at a cost… with every step you take, Darkness is right behind you.

In the sneak peek you will experience aspects of the following features and game mechanics:

  • Item synergies: Build up your deck with powerful items that synergise well together.

  • Elemental synergiesElemental effects can synergise e.g. Bleed damage is reduced by Cold and Disease can spread to Cold or Bleeding units.
  • InteractivesInteract with the environment for new gameplay.
  • Complex Boss mechanics: It’s like encountering a mini raid boss.

  • Movement mechanics: Your character isn’t stuck in one place, which enables you to dodge certain attacks and most items have positional requirements.

  • Manage your Scent: Strategically progress through the map, Darkness is right behind you.

  • Unit synergiesUnits gain new abilities and interactions when certain types of units are present.
