Below are quotes from Play Testers from Summer of 2025. It was a small sample of 10 people split across 3 groups, representing a mix of total first-timers, seasoned gamers, and the RPG-curious. Most of them were not comfortable being photographed and having their image shared online, so we only have the one group photo right now.
We're always eager to get new Play Testers, so if you are interested, sign up here.

"The decrees [were the most fun] I specifically like how flexible they were.”
"It has so much inspiration behind it, it's become it's own unique thing. Like how Warhammer 40k used to be back in the 90's "
"All of [the game mechanics] are good, the events can bring some good fun to the game"
"One of the players tamed the Mighty Hogfish, so it would guard their ships and defend their region in case of attacks."
"It's a unique world with new creatures and loads of possibilities!! I really love it"
"And I quite liked knowing the secret stuff that wasn't revealed to all players, like for example when one of them was preparing for war, he was the only player who started developing military and learnt weaponry - and probably thought he has advantage. But he didn't know about the Mighty Hogfish existing and the fact that the other player tamed them, so if he attacked that would have been quite a SuRpRiSe"
"[My favourite decree was] Making a Magic School"
"The system was unique from any other game that I had seen"
"I had never played a tabletop rpg before this and had only heard of D&D with video games being my main source of games. I thought this was refreshing and quite enjoyable"
"The technology advancement system was fun because it meant once I’d discovered something, it would open up more choices for me. The choice aspect was my favourite because one of my favourite genres of games is decision based ones where every choice matters and this gets me thinking about every choice deeply, thinking about the possible repercussions of them so I felt like I was dropping into somewhat familiar territory."
"There was different tactics that you could choose from and make up your own conditions which was really nice"
"It was really fun!"
"I loved the experience"
"Thanks for the opportunity to take part in the playtest, it was a lot of fun, I feel this is an idea that can really go somewhere and has great potential so keep doing what you’re doing and I wish you all the best with the project! Thanks again!"
"I really loved this game and I would play it again"
"I really liked the concept of having different strategies like magical potions and more"
"I had never played a tabletop rpg before this and had only heard of D&D with video games being my main source of games. I thought this was refreshing and quite enjoyable"
"We had a break in the middle of gameplay, and the players all stopping for the first time and going "wait, this is actually really fun," since none of them had played any ttrpgs before."
"This was my first proper 4X game, and it was good."
"I really liked the concept of having different strategies like magical potions and more"
[Comparing to other games] "[It's] similar to dnd structure? Sorta? I’m more interested in this than dnd ngl"
