Lone King video 1

Choose your Maniple and give it a single order: where to move. Attacks, abilities, hacking, and environmental effects are contextually triggered, and each Maniple moves and attacks differently. The challenge of this game's design was to offer strategic depth with a simple control scheme.

Levels are randomly generated with random combinations and positions of enemies, enemy abilities, and terrain. The game is designed around quick matches that last around 5-10 minutes. You can instead customise the setup, or just remove game modes, stages, and characters from the random rotation if you don't like them.
