About the Game
Escape an Empire Gone Mad
The Empire has fallen. Its survivors are trapped within an apocalypse of its own creation.
Can you assemble a band of heroes and escape the Mad Empire?
Gather your Heroes
Master the full potential of a varied party of heroes, choosing from a pool of 13 classes. Unlock their full potential via skills, loot and more.
Wield Insane Loot
In its madness, the Empire used crystals to create absurd and cursed items. In Escape the Mad Empire, each piece of loot is as meaningful as it is unhinged.
Strategize in the Blink of an Eye
Masterfully employ your heroes and their items in order to survive the apocalypse. Pause the action at any moment to instantly use spells, abilities and consumables, turning the tide of the battle in your favor!
Construct Mad Machines
Your hub is your sanctuary. There you can use the Crystals of Reality to build awesome machines, which allow you to recruit, upgrade or restore heroes, buy, craft, identify or enchant gear, and more. Relax as you theorycraft the ultimate party! .
Chart Your Way Through the Apocalypse
In each daring attempt at escape, you will chart your own path through the cavernous maze dug out by the Mad Empire. Take daring risks to reap big rewards, and face bosses at the end of each run. With each successful escape, your heroes are rewarded with resources used to develop your home base, and let you continue your journey through the Mad Empire’s apocalypse.
Will you Escape the Mad Empire?
