Build 26269171

the rift is open.rift raiders is out on steam, and for launch week it's 15% off.

what is it?a tactical roguelike. pick a hero, draft an army, raid a rift, and decide at every node whether to go home rich or go one deeper.

• stack against stack fights on a grid, in turn order

• one hero per faction, and one for none

• three worlds per raid, and darguur waiting at the very end

• the whole kingdom to rebuild, no more full game only signs

• 11 biomes, 15 languages

played the demo? here is everything we changed since the tutorial update:

• falling in a run now loses everything you carried

• push on past a boss, a courier takes a share home safe

• the archive of echoes raises the courier share now

• extraction and defeat screens show what goes home and what is lost

• the game asks a lot less of your pc on every screen

• 60 fps by default, first launch picks a graphics preset

• the game takes about a third less disk space

• the tutorial teaches by playing, no pop-ups in the first fight

• darker story intro with its own music

• the tutorial map opens on your hero, not on empty grass

• esc or pad b closes a tip without pausing

• the first enemy tip in a real fight pauses the game

• hub ranks give your kingdom stats now

• keepsake draws lean toward your hero's faction

• push on past a boss and you get a world gift

• later worlds sell bigger stacks, and enemies grow every world

• muster deals more variety, sometimes a unit from another faction

• a lot of early keepsakes and path upgrades got stronger

• codex entries and challenges pay wood and stone

• every biome has its own map music

• each hero stands on a dais of their own

• a sword or hourglass by your mana says if you can act

• the spell bar always shows three slots and the spellbook

• auto at the start of a fight runs at 3x

• undiscovered nodes show an animated biome card, not grey balls

• node tooltips say in one line what a node does

• hero stats trimmed to ten, keepsakes explain the rest in words

• a debuff on a unit that already acted covers its next turn

• spells no longer give a unit that already acted an extra turn

• mire's two halves end together now

• boss turn order icons and codex pages show the right boss

• the follow camera no longer flies off the board at 3x

the launch discount ends in one week, so go raid something. thank you so much. we put a lot of work in this, hoping to create a good gaming experience for you players.Civan & Marcel
