This title is an Action RPG with simulator elements, placing you in the role of Will, a shopkeeper in the village of Rynoka. Will secretly harbors aspirations of heroism, leading a double life where his days are spent managing his shop and his nights are dedicated to exploring dangerous, procedurally generated dungeons.

The Dual Life of a Shopkeeper and Adventurer

The core gameplay loop involves balancing two distinct yet interconnected activities. By day, you manage your shop, setting prices for goods, arranging merchandise, and interacting with customers. The success of your shop directly influences your ability to upgrade equipment and prepare for your nocturnal expeditions. Customer satisfaction and market demand are key factors in the shop's profitability.

Dungeon Delving and Combat

When night falls, the focus shifts to action-packed combat and exploration within various dungeons. These dungeons are procedurally generated, offering a fresh experience with each venture. You will battle a variety of monsters, requiring strategic use of different weapons and abilities. Combat is fast-paced, and the rogue-lite elements mean that failure in a dungeon typically results in losing most of the items collected, introducing an element of risk and reward.

What makes this game unique?

The game's distinctiveness lies in its seamless integration of shop management simulation with rogue-lite dungeon crawling. This dual nature creates a compelling cycle where success in one aspect directly fuels progress in the other. Players must master both combat and exploration, alongside developing a keen business sense to thrive.

Acquiring and Selling Goods

The items Will retrieves from the dungeons are the primary source of income for his shop. You have the agency to decide what to sell, when to sell it, and at what price. The shop's reputation and the variety of items available can attract different customer types, impacting the flow of income and the overall economic simulation.

Dungeon Mechanics

Each dungeon consists of multiple rooms filled with enemies and potential treasures. You can equip a variety of weapons, including swords, spears, and bows, each offering different attack styles and ranges. The rogue-lite nature means that dying in a dungeon results in losing most of the collected items, adding a layer of risk and reward to every expedition.

Progression and Upgrades

As Will progresses, you can upgrade his weapons, armor, and the shop itself. These upgrades are crucial for tackling more challenging dungeons and attracting a wider customer base. The village of Rynoka can also be improved through player investment, unlocking new services and opportunities.

Available Platforms

This title is accessible on a wide range of platforms, including PlayStation 4, Linux, PC (Microsoft Windows), iOS, Google Stadia, Android, Mac, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch.
