Bane is a turn-based, procedurally generated, sandbox RPG in which you control a group of heroes or join a party of friends online. Adventures are brief and dangerous; to survive you will have to be careful and clever.聽
If you are familiar with table-top role-playing games, you will have little trouble picking up the simple dice-based skill checks that determine success or failure. Exploration and improvisation are at the heart of the game. A quick and easy-to-use text interface enables you to interact with your surroundings in many novel and surprising ways.
Characters in Bane have no hit-points. Damage is reflected through status effects. This means that combat is quick and tactical. It revolves around positioning, cooperation, and exploiting the weakness of your enemies.
Natural hazards and all manner of devious traps are at least as dangerous as any shambling enemy you might encounter. And probably more frequent! So pick your way forward with care, avoid the traps, but don't dally too much! Complete your quest before your presence triggers the Bane and destroys the site forever.
Between adventures you get to spend your hard-won treasure and experience to improve and expand your roster. This way your characters will grow stronger. Collect clues that can lead you to even more dangerous and rewarding missions. But be careful! Bane is a game with permadeath! If a character dies, they will be gone forever.
