Compete for the throne
You will be competing against other players to try and secure the throne for yourself and become the next ruler of Drakenheim Kingdom.
The people of Drakenheim must see that you have a clear "Right to Rule", in order to recognise your claim.
Helping the inhabitants of the kingdom, defeating beasts of legends and cutting down any other usurpers are a few ways to achieve this goal. You can create your own play style in order to achieve the goal of becoming the ruler, for example, you can be a swordsman who dabbles in the arts of arcanery, or an archer who isn't afraid to get a bit up close and personal with daggers.
Fight MONSTERS
You will be competing against other players to try and secure the throne for yourself and become the next ruler of Drakenheim Kingdom.
The people of Drakenheim must see that you have a clear "Right to Rule", in order to recognise your claim. The best way to do this is by clearing the immediate area around them that threatens them, or defeating a well known villain or monster.
It is likely that a player who is in the lead will become the victim of attacks from other players, to try to prevent them from getting any further - if you find yourself in this position, you can stay in line of sight of guards and people, this will make players think twice about attacking you.
Improve your skills
Your skills are what will define your character in the game and give you an edge over other players.
You can mix and match different skills to define your own play style, this will be where the majority of your power will come from, outside of gearing up.
Max out health and damage skill tree to become a tanking warrior, or max out damage and magic trees to become a battle mage!
It is encouraged to experiment with the different skills in each tree to try and make something new, you may find a combination which is much more stronger and beneficial than you had originally anticipated.
ASSERT YOUR RIGHT
Other players may try to attack you when they are out of range of the law, you must be ready to defend yourself when this happens.
If a guard witnesses the fighting, they will try to break it up and side with the victim, and the aggressor may find themselves imprisoned for fighting within city walls.
Fighting other players is a valid play style, however, choosing where to fight another player, or setting up an ambush is the tricky part.
Items you find throughout the world will greatly help you survive and thrive in Drakenheim, you may find armour which can help absorb the majority of damage, or a skeleton key which makes it easy to access otherwise unreachable locations.
EXplore
It is encouraged to explore and get to know the land you are trying to rule. Although it may seem safe within the confines of the city wall, there are hidden treasures outside of them as well.
You may stumble upon chests within the houses of the inhabitants of Drakenheim, make no mistake, these chests belong to them so they may not like that you are snooping around.

How long has this game been in development?
We have been working on this game since 2017. This is our first video game that we have created and it will be the first one released to steam. We constantly re-evaluate the features and content of the game, and based on both our own opinions and player feedback, we will amend or completely rework some of our systems to provide a better experience for everyone.
Is this a battle royale?
Short answer is: No. This is not a battle royale, when you die, you can still respawn but have to spend either "Right to Rule points", money, or make a sacrifice to respawn, but you are never out of the game until the entire match is concluded.
