About This Game

The Mana Tree—the source of all elemental life—has been corrupted, and the evil feeding on it must be rooted out before it destroys the source completely. Armed with a sword, flail, bow, and hammer, and enhanced by a selection of over 180 magic gems that customize combat abilities, players can take on the battle alone or recruit up to three friends via local wireless co-op.
