About this game
Erik and Mia’s adventure revolves around finding treasure with the help of monsters. Explore Draconia, use your companions’ special vision to locate hidden finds, and borrow their jumping or flying abilities to reach difficult spots. Those same companions also join you in battle as you search for the legendary Dragonstones and other treasures. Your growing collection contributes to the total value of the gang’s treasure vault. Raising that value advances the gang’s rank, unlocking further treasure-hunting abilities and amenities for its base. Expeditions take you through landscapes including volcanic terrain, deserts and icy fields, while rival gangs threaten your treasures both out in the field and at your headquarters.

A promising fit for collectors who want their monster companions to help them explore as well as fight.
Monsters’ traversal abilities can turn spotting a distant treasure into a question of how to reach it. Linking collected treasure to gang development may give players who enjoy building a collection a clear reason to keep exploring.
Strengths
- Companions’ movement and vision abilities can make monster selection relevant to exploration.
- Treasure value feeds gang growth, potentially giving individual discoveries a place in longer-term progress.
Weaknesses
- Rival attacks may interrupt the relaxed searching that some treasure collectors would prefer.
Who it is for: Players drawn to collecting treasures, exploring different landscapes and adventuring alongside helpful monsters.
Play notes: Continuing from a demo save requires the full game to be updated to version 1.0.1 or later.
