About the Game
A strategy game without all the headache? We got you covered.
Saddle the horses! See your kingdom come to life, fight gripping battles to defend it and still be done in time for lunch.
With Thronefall we tried to strip a classic strategy game from all unnecessary complexity, combining it with some healthy hack and slay. Build up your base during the day, defend it til your last breath at night.
Will you be able to strike the right balance between economy and defence? Do you need more archers, thicker walls or an additional mill? Will you keep the enemies at bay with your longbow or charge your horse right into them? It's going to be a tough night, but nothing beats seeing the sun rise above your little kingdom to live another day.

See you on the battlefield come nightfall,
In response to various player reports concerning Elara the Vile (the fire boss on Moorweg) we're trying out the following adjustments, to make the fight feel more even on default settings:
• Elara damages herself with her destructive fire and slowly loses some health over time. Additionally her max health is reduced by 10%.
• Damage of the fire storm reduced by 40%.
• Fire projectiles (primary attack) damage reduced by 35% and damage versus the player additionally reduced by 25%.
• Meteor strike attack remains unchanged (just listed for clarification here)
this is a small patch to fix two bugs that were brought to our attention:
• Tooltips were not showing when the tutorial was played in the same session. This is now fixed and they should show correctly at all times.
• In the Japanese localisation balancing parameters were not displayed correctly in tooltips and showed the source file name instead. This should be fixed now as well.
Thanks a lot for pointing those out so quickly!
All the best
Jonas & Paul
Version 1.71 Hot Fixes:
- Added WASD, Ctrl and Q back to the default keyboard map as hidden key bindings. We wanted to optimize the keyboard layout for new players. The changes that happened to existing players were unintentional. If you're playing with the default key bindings, it should all work the way you're used to again. We appologize for the inconvenience.
Some minor balancing changes while we were at it:
- Chaos God Mutator: Does no longer apply to exploding enemies at all (they just spawn in normally). Attack delay after spawning decreased to 3 (down from 5). Score bonus decreased to +45% down from +50% (as the attack delays etc in recent patches made this mutator a bit easier).
- Golem Hero: +20% health and +10% attack damage to make the hero a bit more competitive with the other hero options in Eternal Trials
- Support Mage Hero: +200% health to make the hero a bit more competitive with the other hero options in Eternal Trials (this is intentionally a rather safe / minor buff as the risk of healing becoming too overpowering is quite large)
just a little hotfix containing score adjustments for the Gold Puzzle Mini Mode on Durststein (the desert map). We forgot to lower them accordingly when we decreased the "No Restarts Bonus" from 10% to 1% in the mini modes. Sorry about that!
All the best,
Jonas & Paul
______________________________________________
CHANGES:
• Lowered the score requirements for the quests in the Gold Puzzle Mini mode. They are now possible to achieve again.
- Fixed broken flying units navigation on Uferwind
- Fixed bug causing a soft lock in the last night of Sturmklamm
as it often happens we introduced a couple of small new bugs with the big endless mode update on Wednesday. Sorry for the inconvenience and thank you all so much for finding and reporting those. We hopefully tracked them all down in this hot fix. It also contains a couple of balancing tweaks that should improve the overall experience you have with Eternal Trials. You'll find the details about the changes below. :)
All the best,
Jonas and Paul
Eternal Trials Balancing Tweaks:
- Mono-battle stages (where you encounter the same one enemy type in every single wave) happen only half as often (about 1 out of 60).
- Mono-spawn stages (an entire stage where enemies only spawn from one spawn point) happen only half as often (about 1 out of 10).
- Starting from stage 5, the stage randomizer will always give you **at least** 11 gold to start with (note, that the difficulty scales with the amount of gold you start with, so this change is just to give you more options and does not directly impact the difficulty)
Bug fixes:
- Fixed a bug that caused the spear to have infinite attack speed
- Fixed a bug where you could gain infinitely more gold by saving and loading Eternal Trials Runs
- Fixed a bug where pressing escape during loading an Eternal Trials run broke the save file
