You must to mount a puzzle to connect lands and build a path where your heroes will walk and fight the undead, until find and kill the Lord of Death.
\nWhen you place a piece, you earn gold and more warriors on each neighbor piece with the same terrain. If no available piece matches the place you want, you can pay to randomly replace one.
\nWhen your heroes find an undead, they will fight, unless you change they behavior to “craven”. When attacked, an entity will bleed, so you can see how near to dead is that unity. When you kill an undead, you earn gold.
\nAll entities are stupid boids. They don’t understand walls, they don’t calculate paths. You can’t control your heroes directly. The better you can do is to click on the map point where they will be attracted, and change their behavior.

\nIt was made to run on any browser, but on an old laptop the game performed better on Firefox.

Pieces moved around smoothly but it kept switching to “low gfx mode” not sure why. I found out pieces could be rotated a bit late to be able to complete the puzzle. Sound was very loud. The wood effect looks nice if it’s generated.

There’s a lot going on and not a lot of control on what happens. I also didn’t find this Lord of Death after playing for a while. I feel like the game shouldn’t be time based, but turn/tile based.\nThe buttons are too small, specially the swap/rotate buttons.

The puzzle pieces look great and the mechanic to place them feels nice. The little fighting warriors are interesting to look at. I enjoyed that I built my own little world, it reminds me of on of my favourite board games - Carcassone.
\nI also love that you implemented a difficulty setting, definitely a stand-out!
\nJust one thing really holds the game back - its very laggy and unresponsive. If you could somehow fix that, the game would be a top contender!

I was originally skeptical of a ‘puzzle game’ but was so pleasantly proved wrong! Your ideas are very unique and well executed. I hope to see the little kinks such as the lag ironed out because this is a wonderful game!

Impressive how you could generate all those details in 13k. The gameplay is definitely unique, nice job!\nThere are some serious issues with performance with Chrome - it lags after few seconds of play making it hard to play - it seems to be much better with Firefox (running on an M1 macbook pro)
