About this game

**4 levels and Brawl are available for free. You can buy the full game with one payment**

Let's play a game: I'll give you some puny humans, and you try to help them make it through my labyrinth. No, you won't be controlling them in battles - they'll fight automatically! My game is about strategy and praying to RNGesus, not mashing buttons. You can buy items for the humans: swords, crossbows, coffins, stale pretzels. Plus, I'll let you give them cool mutations! A few Topochlorians in the blood and some Crocodile Skin never hurt anyone. There's one catch, though: if you die, you have to start over entirely, and the whole world will be generated again from scratch. Yes, my game is a roguelike game. Well, roguelite, if you're a nerd who loves compartmentalizing us creators into strict genres.

I almost forgot: my game has a multiplayer mode, too! But I'm not going to tell you anything about it, because King of the Hill is a special secret multiplayer mode that only unlocks once you beat the game.

The game is unplayable past a certain point. Every single run ends in a fatal error where a couple units get stuck after 3 or 4 levels and prevent anything else from happening. It forces a restart and a loss of all progress. For a $20 game, that has a stable release on other platforms, this is beyond unacceptable. It's the same problem reported over 2 years ago to which the devs said they would fix and haven't. Playing on a galaxy s23 + which is more than powerful enough to run the game.

Fun game. Have it on Steam and it's great. I hate that you can't link accounts. Also, moving units in the mobile version is awful. The weakest part about the game is poor balance. For example, in brawl mode, some traits (like revive after battle) don't make sense which is a carryover from the base game. In koth, mutagen + shooters seem to be the predominant strategy since means to counter it are weak. It seems like you just one-shot or get one-shot in koth.

Mobile versions are untethered from PC for technical reasons, it is quite difficult to support completely identical versions on different platforms =( UPD: on new season you can counterplay shooters without problem

One of my favourite games. Love the art, music and dialogue, serves the hilariously bleak premise/theme so well. The mechanics are genius, diabolical and constantly updated/evolving. The class system works well, each serves a different purpose but can function in all sorts of weird and wonderful ways via a perk system that keep things fresh and replayable. You can "beat" brawl and do well in king of the hill using wildly different teams if you're adaptable. Good on you devs, love your work.

What’s new

- Mass Taunt is reworked. Its duration now depends on the number of Tanks in your team and the cooldown increases for every cast and resets after a fight
- Experience bar in the unit's UI now has a tooltip, which should help when buying Knowledge Tokens
- Season 40 and balance changes. You can read more on our official Discord server: Despot's Game
