Hellfare is a dark fantasy guild management game that combines economic simulation, mercenary management, and turn-based dungeon crawling.

From the last town before the gates of Hell, take charge of a growing guild of workers and Heroes. Send expeditions into the depths, gather valuable resources, explore dangerous dungeons, and build your fortune in a world where everything has a price.

Whether you prefer managing an economy, leading a Hero into battle, or letting your guild operate while you're away, the choice is yours.

Recruit workers, develop their skills, equip them with better tools, and send them on expeditions to gather resources from the depths of Hell.

Your workers are the backbone of your economy. Their labor provides the materials, equipment, and wealth needed to grow your operation.

But every expedition carries risk, and not everyone makes it home.

Your Hero takes on the work that ordinary laborers cannot.

Venture into dangerous dungeons, face deadly enemies, and uncover valuable treasures through turn-based combat.

Take direct control of your Hero and make tactical decisions yourself, or allow them to adventure automatically while you attend to the rest of your guild.

The deeper you venture, the greater the potential rewards, and the greater the danger.

Fortunes aren't made through combat alone.

Buy and sell goods in a fluctuating market, craft equipment, manage your guild's expenses, and trade with merchants and simulated companies through the Auction House.

A clever trader can turn modest earnings into enormous wealth without ever lifting a sword.

Your workers continue their assignments over real time, even while the game is closed.

Manage production, improve equipment, plan expeditions, or take control of your Hero for another dungeon run.

There's always another opportunity to make money, and another way to lose it.
