Half Boat, Half Train, all AWESOME. Forget what you know about roguelikes. What you know about grid-based combat. What you know about the brief moment between birth and endless oblivion that we call life. This game takes all of that and kicks its dick into the sun. Assume command as the iconic SIR KING, and do battle with a veritable menagerie of aquatic beasties. Each enemy is cold, calculated, and brutally efficient, with joyously animated sprites that thrill and delight. The road ahead is perilous, but the BANGING SOUNDTRACK pushes the player forward, enticing them deeper into an unforgiving battlefield, daring them to solve the mysteries of the enigmatic Boat Train. Set sail. Forge bonds of salt and iron. Test your mettle on the high seas. The Boat Train beckons. Will you answer the call?
