Introduction

Interdict: The Post-Empyrean Age is a classic-style dungeon crawler similar to Wizardry I-V, Might and Magic I & II, and the Etrian Odyssey series. You will create a party of characters and guide them through dangerous labyrinths filled with enemies to battle in turn-based combat, treasures to find, and mysteries to uncover. 

However, Interdict also incorporates significant roguelike elements: most of the game's content is procedurally generated each time you play, the resources available to your party are scarce, and looming over your quest is the threat of "permawipe". Individual characters who die may be revived, but if your party is wiped out, your game is over and you must restart from the beginning, with nothing carrying over from previous attempt.

Description

In Interdict, you play as a group of six prisoners who have been awakened from their forced slumber to find their memories gone and the world shattered.

Starting with only improvised equipment, and barely any memory of what skills they may have once possessed, your party must escape their prison, discover what happened to the world, and whether or not it may yet be restored.

Battles with foes will be frequent and dangerous, but you will confront them with characters of your own design: there are no classes to hold you back. Any character may use any item or learn any skill, they need only train to meet the requirements, and their training is entirely up to you.

Your party's outfitting is also under your control. You can upgrade or craft more of any equipment you find, but the resources needed to do so are finite and few. Will you prioritize weapons, armor, or magical relics? Will you focus on making powerful equipment for one or two to utilize, or spread your resources evenly to make plenty of basic gear for everyone?

These decisions, and more, are entirely yours to make. Your party's success or failure lies in your hands.

9/18/2026 Version Highlights

• Enchantments have been added to the game! Over 80 enchantments can be found, allowing you to modify your equipment to suit your party's needs. You need not be content with the pre-enchanted items you find as loot of course: once you have found an enchantment, you can apply it to other items of your choice at the Workshop in Mnemosyne.
• A new recurring event type, Rituals, can now appear in any of the game's dungeons. Rituals offer the opportunity to win a rare double-enchanted item... but you must defeat a particularly powerful foe in order to claim this prize.
• It is now possible to export your current party and characters' status to text file if you want to show other players how your run is going. This can be done at any time from the Party Menu, and will also automatically occur if your party is wiped out.
• Several bug fixes, balance adjustments, and other improvements are included as well.
• Note: Save files from earlier versions will not work in the 9/18/2026 version. You will need to finish your game in your current version, or begin a new game in the 9/18/2026 version.
