Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Estimated to be 4-8 months.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“I'm planning to implement additional features including: 4th combat dungeon, combat rework and balancing, VIP membership with some small benefits, achievements, and improvements to new player experience. I may also look at integration with Steam Achievements.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current version is fully playable and is part of the same game server which has been running on our main website for almost 2 years.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“No, the game will always be free to play.”
