Erden: The Climb

Erden: The Climb is an incremental RPG about climbing a seemingly endless tower floor by floor that combines short active bursts of play with idle phases centered around resource gathering. Engage in automatic combat with active elements, gather resources, craft items and grow in power with the help of multiple progression systems.
The Tower
Defeat enemies on each floor and claim the rewards - materials to craft powerful equipment and the secrets of magic.
Equipment
Craft gear, improve it through repeated usage and awaken your weapons. Retrace the steps of souls of past bound to the awakened weapons for additional benefits. Inscribe and equip runes to wield powerful magic.
Crafting
Craft everything. Weapons, armor, accessories and magical runes. Food, potions, enchantments and magical scrolls.
Combat
Fight enemies in an automatic battle system that allows you to manually use consumables in real time - spell scrolls, potions, food and other items providing advantage. Idle away to grind for experience and resources.
Enchantments
Enchant your equipment with enchantments, either empowering your strengths or covering your weaknesses. Slay enemies for a chance to get their card - a powerful version of enchantments.
Skills
Discover and improve a multitude of skills by doing their respective actions. Get hit? Tenacity! Throw a fireball? Mana Control and Fire Affinity! Cook a steak? Cooking! Stuff your face? Gluttony! Spend money? Trading! And more, a lot more. Reach proficiency thresholds for additional benefits.
Quests
Visit the Adventurers' Guild and complete quests to receive money and useful items in return. Gather reputation to rank up and receive more difficult and rewarding quests.
Blessings
Accept the Tower's Blessings to acquire great power... at a great cost.
Lore
What is the Tower, why did it appear? What's the secret behind it? Get to know other climbers. Learn about those of the past and their mistakes.
