About This Game

Your fingers... Yes, those. They are astonishingly nimble! I have never seen their like. Use them to type your way through a strategic challenge like no other. Become the unlikely hero of Minsteria, whose vacant throne is vulnerable to the grasping hands of sly nobles and warmongering bandits.

Use your typewriter to construct armies, build villages and defeat miscreants across a sprawling tactical campaign dotted with big gameplay surprises.

This quest will challenge veteran strategists and newcomers alike. But I believe in you, Paul! You know what they say: the keyboard is mightier than the sword.

MASTER A UNIQUE STRATEGY CHALLENGE

• Conquer your opponent's Village by commanding armies of Swordsmen, Archers, Spearmen and Cavalry, with Golems and Catapults thrown in for extra carnage.

• Acquire gold by hiring Workers to mine and farm. Grow and enhance your forces by spending gold on unit upgrades and buildings such as Stables, Barracks and Spearhuts.

• Engage in melee and ranged combat, making tactical decisions based on unit types, army size, and which routes lay ahead. Deal bonus damage by charging down the enemy or flanking them in a pincer movement.

• Use nifty spells that grant you an edge, adding an Ink Factory to unlock advanced magic like Teleport and Plague.

USE YOUR KEYBOARD TO CONTROL EVERYTHING

LET JIM BROADBENT TELL YOU A TALE

Naturally, beloved Oscar-winning actor Jim Broadbent is the voice of this ripping yarn. Our story's hero, Paul, is just a humble wizard's apprentice trying to avoid sorting someone else's toenail collection.
