While a role-playing game, the game uses a real time strategy game interface rather similar to Warcraft II. The player chooses one of four characters (male fighter, female fighter, male mage or female mage) sent to Plagat, capital of the allod of Uimoir, which is part of the Kania empire. On the journey the player will meet the other three members, and more companions. There will be hirelings available for a fee should a player find any mission too challenging and need reinforcements. Each mission takes place in a game map generally full of enemies. Mission type ranges from rescue to escort to exterminate villains to treasure hunting.
