The game is planned for Steam, with no release date or price set and English only.","whyItMatters":"The Cryptmaster duo's follow-up drops combat entirely, making the tower window the only interface with a world that shifts with the player's choices.","webCardHtml":"\u003cp\u003eTower work covers magical relics, strange plants, potions, and ancient scrolls.
