Initium

Play alone or play with a group, Initium suits your playing style While it's hard to nail it down exactly, one of the possible reasons for this unique community could be due to Initium's unusual rescue mechanic. Players that would be otherwise killed will often continue to persist in an unconscious state and able to talk in chat. What often ends up... happening is the community will rally together to search for a downed player and rescue them, often giving them back the loot they had left behind as well.

There is no minimum necessary time investment and no limit to how much you can play either. We want to continue with this concept into the new system as well. The new system will certainly have more involved combat, there will be a lot more you can do. It will be a top-down 2D style (see the gif on the left) where movements and positioning are strategically important. However in keeping with the benefits of the old system, we plan on allowing players to automatically progress combat with a single click if they don't want to (or don't have time to) micro manage. This is meant to simulate the old "one-click-per-turn" combat system. As players go about regular activities in the game, their character will come up with an "idea" for a new skill or invention.
