About For The King

The King is dead, murdered by an unknown assailant. Now the once peaceful kingdom of Fahrul is in chaos.

With nowhere left to turn and stretched beyond her means, the queen has put out a desperate plea to the citizens of the land to rise-up and help stem the tide of impending doom. Will you brave the relentless elements, fight the wicked creatures, sail the seas and delve into the dark underworld? None before you have returned from their journey. Can you be the one to put an end to the Chaos?

For The King is a challenging blend of Strategy, JRPG Combat, and Roguelike elements.

Unique Dice-Roll Inspired Combat System




Fight and die as a party in fast paced and brutal turn-based combat using a unique slot system for attacks and special abilities. Find and gather herbs for your trusty pipe to heal your wounds and cure your maladies. Set up safe camps or brave the horrors that nightfall brings.

Rogue-lite Replayability




Every playthrough is made unique with procedurally generated maps, quests, loots and events for you to tackle. Use Lore between playthroughs to purchase Weapons, Items, NPCs, Classes, Events, and more!

Multiple ways to play
