About This Game
A more or less fortunate event led to you receiving your own piece of land, which you can freely develop. You can also explore the already accessible regions of Hyalen to complete quests, obtain new recipes, mine resources and improve your crafting skills.
The game will initially be released as Early Access. This means that most of the functions are already available, but have not yet been fully developed.
In addition, all systems are filled with initial content. Further content will be added in the course of further development.
With an Early Access release, it is always to be expected that errors and other anomalies may occur. So if you are only interested in a finished game, you should give Onyx time for further development.
If you are unsure about anything or have any other questions, you are welcome to ask them on the Onyx Discord.
