About This Game

A demanding roguelike tactical RPG, where every fight and decision revolves around YOU.

You are King Nrvesk, despot of Ruedome. Your reign was bloody, oppressive, and unjust, but was brought to an end by your neighbouring ruler, Boros II of Stratha. Under the pretence of a diplomatic meeting, an attempt on your life was made as you sat across a man you once considered an ally. Narrowly, you escaped.

Nrvesk is your company’s most powerful asset, but also your greatest vulnerability. His death in battle means the end.

Lost In The Open is designed to be a challenging experience. You will face an ever-growing roster of deadly, unique enemies. They will pull your allies out of position, lure you into traps, and coordinate to flank you.  Learn their weaknesses, fight strategically, and protect your King.

A powerful Strathaian vanguard follows you tirelessly. You must traverse the dangerous terrain between Stratha and Ruedome and encounter hundreds of difficult decisions. Do you take the well-forested path where you risk becoming beasts’ prey, or the high ground, where you are exposed and easily tracked by man? Do you pay a hefty toll to avoid a fight with bandits?

You will not be alone in your adversity. Manage a diverse roster of recruits. Train them to become specialists, or jacks-of-all-trades. Create quick-bladed bloodletters, mighty human shields, patient bowmen. Equip them with strange trinkets, bolster their weapons and armour with unique attachments. Nrvesk’s life lay in his companions’ hands; shape them to your advantage.

Defeating enemies, aiding strangers, and trading with merchants are your means of sustaining yourself on this journey. Balance your resources, between unlocking new traits and abilities, upgrading your equipment, and sustaining your companions.

Defeat rears its head at every turn in Lost In The Open. Prepare for the worst. Face the consequences of your choices. Return to your throne.
