Corvos Dynasty

Corvos Dynasty is a role-playing game inspired by 1990s classics, with three modes: a story-led adventure, randomly generated dungeons in Arcade mode, and an open-world Conquest mode with minimal story. Adventure mode takes about 30 hours to complete without side quests; Arcade and Conquest average about 6 hours each.

Game modes

Adventure mode follows the story in a mostly linear order, with some side quests along the way. You can also take on guild quests and character quests. Arcade mode challenges you to see how far you can get through randomly generated dungeons, while Conquest mode offers an open world with little story.

Gameplay can be customized with options including visible enemy encounters, enemy leveling and random loot. You can also set up a randomized playthrough and speed-run it with friends, competing for the fastest completion time.

Combat and characters

Combat is fast and turn-based. You build your characters using a selection of over 500 skills, while each character's unique trait adds a further twist. Using skills and traits effectively helps you face the punishing enemies you encounter.

More than 45 characters are playable, including 10 main characters. You can recruit most merchants you talk to by doing them a favor first. Some characters can summon monsters, adding them to your party.

World and discoveries

Seasons and weather affect more than appearance. Storms can strengthen shock magic, while heatwaves can make your party more vulnerable to burns. Most areas also change with the seasons, revealing different treasures and enemies at different times of year.

The economy responds to your actions. For example, killing all the monsters outside a town can reduce demand for weapons, while breaking into houses can make a neighborhood seem more dangerous and housing more affordable. Characters and loot are scattered throughout the world, with exploration uncovering unlockables.
