For The King is a unique blend of roguelike adventure, turn-based strategy, and tabletop-inspired RPG. Set in the fantastical realm of Fahrul, the game begins as the king is mysteriously murdered, thrusting the kingdom into chaos. You and up to two companions embark on perilous journeys across procedurally generated hex-grid maps—alone or in cooperative multiplayer—to restore order and defeat looming threats.
Key features
Tabletop-inspired turn-based adventures
Traverse map tiles and manage a party of up to three heroes in strategic combat and exploration inspired by board games.
Procedurally generated world for high replayability
Each new campaign features a unique map, events, quests, and encounters to keep gameplay varied and unpredictable.
Permadeath with persistent progression
Characters who perish are permanently lost, but they earn Lore points that unlock new classes, items, and events between playthroughs.
Multiple character classes with diverse playstyles
Choose from roles like Blacksmith (tank), Hunter (ranged), Scholar (mage), Minstrel (support), and more—each with unique abilities and strategic functions.
Dice-roll inspired slot mechanic in combat and actions
Combat and skill checks are resolved using a visual slot system, where success depends on luck, focus points, and party stats.
Co-operative gameplay online and locally
Play solo, or team up with others in online or local split-screen co-op to tackle the campaign together.
Varied adventure modes and expansions
Includes the main story quest, bonus campaigns like Frozen Expanse, Into the Deep, Dungeon Crawl, Hildebrandt’s Cellar, and competitive Gold Rush modes.
Resource management and strategic planning
Balance health, focus, gear, gold, and hunger while choosing when and where to rest, visit shops, or take on quests.
Charming art style with thematic music
Colorful, miniature-figurine aesthetic paired with ambient music evokes the feel of a living board game.
Difficulty customization for challenge scaling
Select from Apprentice, Journeyman, or Master difficulty—with configurable settings influencing enemy strength, lore gain, and game economy.
Rich single-player and multiplayer experience
Suitable for solo players looking for strategy and challenge, and for groups who enjoy cooperative tactics and shared storytelling.
