Description

The New World looms on the horizon, on its shore the shining city of progress, and the last beacon of hope in your search for a cure to your family's fatal disease - New Arc. You arrive to this foreign land by steerage of a steamship, cramped with thousands of other immigrants, a stranger in a strange land, full of wonder. But you will soon discover that the city's beauty runs only skin-deep and all you find is rot beneath the golden facade.

Dark smoke from the factories chokes the skies, segregation, inequality, and corruption run rampant. You will have to rise from the very bottom, make tough decisions, and get your hands dirty if you are to succeed - and you must, no matter the cost!

Craft technopunk gear or master the arcane arts, fight, steal or smooth-talk your way to the top and become the hero or villain you want to be. You will not have to face the trials of this world alone, however; find your companions and gather your party, make foes and allies, fall in love, get involved in a massive conspiracy, and change the course of history forever.

Will you rise to the occasion?

Become the Hero or the Villain you want to be

Create your own character as a Human or Elf, choose your gender, background and appearance. Keep in mind that inhabitants of this world might have their own prejudices and will treat you differently depending on your choices.

Gather your Party

You won’t be alone on these shores. Meet & recruit a diverse cast of characters, learn their stories, face their demons together and help them grow, or use them for your own gain and discard them as fits your schemes. Who knows, maybe you will even find your true love!

Master Technology or Magic

Will you master the secrets of Magic to incinerate enemies as a Hellfire occultist, curse them with mystical Voodoo abilities, or assist your allies as a Celestial sage? Or will you rather cast aside the obsolete ways and become a Steampunk mechanic, Dieselpunk engineer or Teslapunk scientist, and turn your character into a walking steam-powered fortress?

Fight for your Right

Command your party in turn-based tactical battles. Fight head-on and brute-force your way through encounters or observe and analyze each situation and come up with cunning strategies to conquer even seemingly overwhelming odds. There’s a plethora of skills, spells, crafting recipes and consumables at your disposal to turn the tide of battle in your favor.

Manifest Your Destiny

Make a name for yourself, influence countless lives for better or worse, and watch the consequences of your choices unfold. You may start out as only a poor immigrant, but soon your exploits will fill the front pages of newspapers and the events you set in motion will change the fate of the New World forever.

Can't recommend. There is content here, and the setting is pushing all the steampunk buttons for me. However at the current state it's more of a Demo then EA and there is very little progress for over a year now aside

Don't buy, it is dead. The game got released nov 2024 which is now 1,5 years ago and since then zero content updates besides a class and one tiny area. The developer only posted about new content 4 times which never got

It seems unlikely that this game will be finished. Which is unfortunate, there was some good potential here. Hopefully I'm wrong, but I wouldn't purchase this game as it currently stands if you expect a finished

This is less a review more bringing light to circumstances, I see a lot of people saying how the game has been abandoned by the devs, instead of going straight to "Uhp haven't heard anything in a long while, must have

Last Content for EA came July 25, its now March 26. The game visible so far is nice, but I do not assume to get a finished product in any relevant time frame.

I'm going to be frank here and straight to the point. People don't like what I have to say, that is a YOU PROBLEM, not mine. First off, this game was sold on the premise that it would be a Successor to the old Arcanum
