Fortify custom builds, forage resources and fight through a never-ending army of darkness on the long road to the Arch. Do whatever it takes to make sure the city endures!

Monsters are Coming: Rock & Road is an action rogue-lite where you begin each run controlling a peon, tasked with fighting back hordes and hordes (and hordes) of monsters attacking from all sides! 

But the peon’s true objective is to protect a moving city – even at the expense of their own life – all while making sure its path isn’t obstructed by the environment, gathering enough resources to expand its potential. So where peons can respawn if they fall in battle, it’s only when the city is destroyed that your run is over! 

Fortunately, the city can also protect itself through archery outposts, necromancy towers and even fire-breathing dragons. As long as you’ve got the coin, wood, gems and stone to fulfil the requirements, you can build a real fortress of destruction! Resources, by the way, you’ll have to gather while fighting and protecting the city, balancing risk versus reward. 

Defeated monsters drop gems which you use to power up. And off the beaten path you can find even more, unexpected ways to give your Peon an edge in battle.  

But despite the fast and furious pace of MaC: R&R, you will be able to find some respite at shelters. Here, you can take some time to decide what to spend your newfound wealth on and add even rarer buildings to your arsenal. Some of which affect your gold in-take or damage output, but you can also build towers that freeze monsters or spawn additional minions to repel the continued invasion.  

Should you be defeated, at the end of each run you can also use your built up experience and resources to add permanent upgrades to your peon and city.  

As you try to fight through four biomes, finding the right city build, selecting integral attributes to help you reach the Arch, you’ve definitely got your work cut out for you against some of the deadliest creatures you’ve had the misfortune to encounter.

Interested players can sign up for the Monsters Are Coming! Rock & Road Closed Beta here! The first wave of invites is anticipated to go out later this month. 

Key Features:

• Build your city, your way. Reach shelter and buy new districts from the city shop. Then strategically choose where you place them, deciding what to build and when based on the needs of each run.
• Defend yourself. Add archery outposts, necromancer towers, and even fire-breathing dragons to help the city protect itself from the dangers beyond the walls.
• Unlock new possibilities: Find a build that works for you, buy power boosts, and find ways to stay alive against increasingly more powerful monsters the closer you get to the Arch!
• Keep the city stocked: Gather wood to keep the engines burning, chisel stone to help repair and rebuild, and mine gold to expand your moving fortress of destruction.
• Head off the beaten path: Look for hidden secrets in shelters and tackle side hordes to find richer, rarer rewards. Just make sure you get back in time!
• Progress to Prevail: Level up, increase your potential through vast player progression, and protect the city at all costs, even at the expense of your peon!
• The City Still Stands: Even if the Peon falls, it’s not game over! A run only ends once the city is destroyed, so jump back into the fight before all hope is lost.
• Choose your class: Pick a peon to suit your style of play, from close-range melee fighters to casters.
• Bad Ass Bosses: Getting to the Arch won’t be easy and there may be some larger monsters waiting for you at the finish line…

Monsters Are Coming! Rock & Road will launch on PC (Steam) soon.
