What the remake changes
You play a nameless prisoner thrown into the Valley of Mines, a penal colony sealed by a magical barrier. The remake keeps the original's design DNA — no minimap, a hero who starts with no skills, faction-based progression — while modernising visuals and expanding the smithing and cooking systems, with an adjustable camera and difficulty.
