The premise, in the publisher's words
A multiplayer settlement-building RPG set in a dark, plague-ravaged world where twisted madmen and bandits roam the land. Your life will depend on how well you manage and grow your settlement. Fortunately, you're not alone — your peasants will help you gather resources, craft items, and build defenses as you lead them through danger and privation. Save and recruit other survivors during your journey, but keep in mind that they will need your protection. Rise from the bottom, overcome monumental challenges, and make your fame echo across the Nested Lands. But remember, every choice you make has consequences and can lead your village to prosperity or a senseless death from the plague.
