Will you escape with gold and power?

Or fall to the Shadows of Chroma Tower?

Survive by means of steel, wit or magic

Defeat the Archmage's minions, plunder their riches, discover the secrets within the Tower and escape with your life! Do it the way you prefer:

  • Play by yourself or with friends.
  • 5 classes, each with their own skills, talent tree and specialized subclasses.
  • 3 professions for you to master.
  • Several difficulties for you to challenge yourself and test your gear and skills.
  • Hordes, mini-bosses, bosses and raids to fight alone or with up to 9 players.
  • Choose your Faction and conquer the Tower Whether playing by yourself or with friends, you will always be contributing to the bigger picture.
  • Factions and Territories - Will you fight the will of the Archmage as a Purist? Or will you join the Chromatists and try to harness the chromatic magic for yourself? F&T is our Asynchronous PvP global war feature that will be partly responsible for unfolding the game's lore as players contribute to its collective goals.
  • Escaping, defeating bosses, and many other actions grant your faction control over portions of the Tower, granting characters many different bonuses and advantages.
  • Join collective efforts to drive back the forces of the Archmage, eventually reaching his lair atop the Chroma Tower.
  • Player driven economy based on crafting, gathering and trading. Discover powerful recipes and level up your crafting professions to provide your friends - or potential buyers - with top-tier builds.
  • Challenge yourself - the bigger the challenge, the better the loot As you climb the tower, you'll find new, more powerful minions and enhanced versions of the previous ones. They carry better items for you to use, better materials for you to craft with and more treasures for you to sell!
  • Start out with poorly made equipment, improvised from rural tools, and find better weapons and armor from all around the world - and even different worlds - within the Tower.
  • Fight, trade or craft your way to being able to decimate hordes of enemies with a flick of the wrist.
  • Choose your own difficulty - are you on a slow day and just want to have something to do? That's fine. Want to get friends together and challenge a floor filled with elites and mini-bosses? We've got something for you too.
  • Unlock your potential - As you level up, unlock new classes, crafting recipes, profession skills, difficulties and maps.
  • Join or create a Guild and challenge the Archmage in 10-player raids
  • Climb the Tower, visiting the many different biomes it has assimilated from different places and dimensions - it's bigger on the inside!
  • Find access to the Lairs - Three huge bosses guard the Tower Top. Raid their lairs with up to 10 players for a chance at facing the Archmage and breaking the Maldichroma curse.
  • Coordinate with your Guild, contributing resources, completing challenges and purchasing Guild Perks that grant all members perks and bonuses.
