The game is an indie RPG that combines roguelike elements with tabletop to create an adventure spanning realms. You can take on the game’s challenges on your own or team up with a friend in both local and online multiplayer modes. The gameplay mixes turn based combat and strategy with roguelike elements. Maps, events, and quests are procedurally generated so each play through will be unique. Here is the For The King announcement trailer.
