Vaelgrim key art: a hooded guardian before a ruined castle

Web3 dark fantasy idle RPG

Five heroes. One fate. Your own legend.

The pitch

You don’t swing the sword. You design the party.

Vaelgrim is a Web3 game: a side-view idle RPG in pixel art. Three heroes push through a grim world, facing waves of undead, orcs and demons. Combat is automatic; the depth is in the decisions.

Choose three of five classes, shape each one with skills and a talent tree, socket gems, enchant your gear and pick where to farm next. Loot is the heart of the game.

Choose your party

Five heroes, three slots

Your account has all five heroes, but only three march at a time. Experience is shared, so every pick is a trade-off. Try a line-up:

Your party 3/3

  1. Paladin
  2. Archer
  3. Priestess

How they fight

The Priestess keeps everyone standing with heals and shields. The Paladin’s aura lifts the whole party. The Archer picks off targets from range.
