- Mixed Aesthetics: Utilizing traditional pixel art, modern lighting and 3D environments creates a unique and beautiful graphical experience.
- Character Development: Players are free to develop their character as they wish with no classes or skill trees to hold them back.
- Perma-Death: In Yardendrell, death is permanent. Take heed not to rush into the unknown without preparing first.
- Eldritch Lineage: Unlock the secrets of your lineage while you develop your skills. Eldritch traits remain even through death.
- Free Updates, Always: Never worry about paying extra for new skills, locations, dungeons, etc.
