In the alpha: against the AI

### Solo Lane

You alone on your lane: tower defense against the AI or against waves of enemies only.

- **Practice round:** The safe start. You build towers, shape the monsters' path and get to know your hero. Nothing is lost.
- **Battle against the AI:** You choose the difficulty. With offerings to your god you put the AI under pressure, gold is the only currency.
- **Hard Lines:** Solo runs against waves of enemies only, with no opponent, with your hero. How far will you get?

For you if you want to build, learn and improve in peace.

Planned

### PvP Lane

Two players, two lanes, one winner.

- Your maze against your opponent's. You defend and send monsters onto his lane at the same time.
- Fair for everyone: every hero starts at level 1, gear only changes the look here.
- No pay-to-win. Whoever wins gets gold and experience.
- Comes with the online part. In the alpha the battle against real players does not exist yet.

For you if you are looking for the thrill of a real duel.

Planned

### Ruins

Break into ancient ruins together.

- Two to five heroes move together through halls and doors. AI companions fill free spots.
- Behind them wait bosses, loot and relics that strengthen your hero permanently.
- This strength only counts in the ruins: battle stays fair for everyone.

For you if you would rather have adventures with friends than play against them.

First camp in the alpha

### Home camp

Your camp is the main menu, and it grows with you.

- At the fire you choose your hero and see what you have achieved.
- The gate leads into battle. Later the horse for the ruins will join.
- Step by step the camp becomes your own village.

For you if you want to feel at home in the game world.

State of the alpha on 30 October 2026. What comes later is on the [Roadmap](https://bannerwrath.com/en/roadmap/).
