Kromlech is set in a fictional universe modeled after and inspired by the early Iron Age cultures of central Europe and the British Isles, predominantly the Celts.

Play as an adventurer whose quest for glory and gold takes an unexpected turn when he finds himself at the center of a world-ending calamity. Get ready to embark on a journey into a mythical world of an ancient past, where the truth was to be found at a sword’s edge.

Play as Cronach, a lone adventurer living through the world’s last days. Carefully decide on how you will spend those days, which treasures you will find, what friends or enemies you will make, and how you will be known.

Do not despair, for nothing happens without reason. Make good use of the time you have left and you may discover what is going on… and maybe even learn how to stop it, so that you may enjoy your hard-earned coin.

Players can expect an original combat system centered on tactical attacks targeting exposed parts of enemies, a compelling narrative arc, and above all, a richly atmospheric world inspired by Celtic mythology, offering diverse questing and problem-solving opportunities.

Kromlech’s combat system perfectly embodies the philosophy of “easy to learn, hard to master.” While accessible for newcomers, mastering it demands practice and precision. At its core lies a system we call RTL, which focuses on striking weak or unarmored enemy areas. As enemies wear different types of armor on various parts of their bodies, each encounter presents a fresh tactical challenge. Early battles may allow for a bit of traditional button-mashing, but progressing further will require players to adopt more refined techniques.

The world of Kromlech is vast and vertical, brimming with adventure and danger. Immerse yourself in deep, shadowy caves and sun-drenched hilltops, visit ancient shrines and ceremonial sites, or take refuge in the safety of scattered settlements. Kromlech will continually surprise you with random events, treasure-filled (and undead-infested) dungeons, and meaningful encounters - each of which may unfold in dramatically different ways.

Embark on an epic adventure with Cronach and shape him into a legendary hero whose reputation echoes across the land. Kromlech offers a wide range of options to strengthen your character, enhance your abilities, and tailor it to your preferred playstyle. Adorn him with war paint, equip him with powerful gear and mystical artifacts, and watch enemies tremble before him as his heroic deeds reshape the world around him.

"We’re excited to share more details with you soon, covering individual aspects of the game. And rest assured—we still have many surprises in store! We're also thrilled to announce that Kromlech will be showcased at Gamescom, and we’d be delighted to welcome you to our booth. Stay tuned!"

Kromlech will be available through Steam Early Access as some point in the near future.

“The current Early Access version includes all the core gameplay mechanics, and will stay in Early Access until all the content and features are implemented. We are hoping to be in Early Access for approximately 12 months.”

“The core gameplay of the full game is planned to remain pretty much the same. With Early Access, our goal is to expand the game and implement advanced mechanics. With the full version, we also want to add more languages and a better optimisation of the game.”
