Tagline

Build a home. Master the runes. Explore dungeons.

Short description

RuneEra is a fantasy colony-management RPG where you build a guild settlement, automate its work and shape your adventurers with powerful runes. Lead parties into a procedural world of quests, factions and dangerous dungeons.

Extended description

Establish a home in the wilderness and turn it into a functioning guild settlement. Organize production, grow crops and care for animals while balancing the skills, equipment and needs of your people. When danger calls, assemble a party and take direct command.

Runes provide removable abilities and passive effects, letting you adapt guild members for combat or settlement work. Explore a procedural world for resources, quests and dungeon rewards, then bring those discoveries back to strengthen your settlement. Manage mana and biome-specific essence, travel with pack animals and decide how to deal with the factions around you.

Features

Build a living settlement. Construct specialized rooms and organize production for food, equipment and medicine. Support the guild with farming and animal husbandry.

Manage your people. Assign work priorities and daily schedules. Set shared inventory and equipment rules, then take direct control when coordination matters.

Customize with runes. Combine removable abilities and passive effects to adapt your adventurers and workers to the next challenge.

Harness mana. Use magical abilities, build pylons and research new capabilities with resources and biome-specific essence.

Explore beyond home. Organize caravans of guild members and pack animals. Discover varied biomes, quests, dungeons and new settlement sites.

Deal with other factions. Trade, complete quests and build relationships, or face the consequences of conflict.
