PRIDEBLOOD -Born of Claws-

PRIDEBLOOD -Born of Claws- — A Monster Raising, Breeding and Auto-Battle Strategy Sim

Four continents hold 99 rival owners and over 3,000 monsters. Every one of them ages, trains, competes, retires and breeds on its own schedule, whether or not you are watching. You run a single facility inside that world.

Who this is for

• People who can sit with a stat screen open and watch numbers climb
  
• People who can keep going when raising does not go their way
  
• People who like the idea of a world that moves while they are not looking

What you cannot do

• Control a battle — No attack commands, no dodges. Once it starts, you watch.
  
• Tell a strong monster by looking at it — Potential and growth curve are never shown. Raising it is the only way to find out.
  
• Rush it — A year is 48 weeks, and a bloodline takes generations to say anything.

If even one of those sounds like a problem, this is not your game.
If all three sound interesting — everything below is for you.

How it plays

A year is 48 weeks. You build a weekly training plan, pick entries from the annual calendar, and send monsters out while watching condition and fatigue. Once a battle begins there is nothing left to do; everything that decides it already happened. Retired monsters move into breeding and carry the line forward.

A world of over 3,000, running in parallel

Ramvald, Harraq, Verdara and Lanhai — four continents holding 99 rival owners and over 3,000 monsters. Some 400 of them were born in the same year as yours. They grow, compete, retire and breed without waiting for your input. You are competing inside living history, not against a static ladder.

Four-way affinity, eight builds

Technique beats Power beats Speed beats Intelligence beats Technique. Eight build archetypes each pull from their own tactical skills, and terrain, weather and lunar phase shift the maths underneath. The same opponent can give a different result next week.

Raising on incomplete information

Potential, growth curve and current cap stay hidden for good. Your owner's Insight narrows the guess over time, but never confirms it. The numbers on screen are not the answer.

Blood Resonance and the Vessel

Species composition, common ancestors and nicking compatibility are scanned five generations deep and surface on the offspring as Blood Resonance. The more species mixed into a pedigree, the higher the ceiling its offspring can reach. Breed too close and you pay for it in HP and temperament.

Take your monster into someone else's world

Export any monster you have raised to an encrypted file, and put monsters raised in separate worlds onto the same field: duels, battle royales of up to eight, and tournaments.

100 achievements

From a first win to a completed bloodline to a broken world record — 100 achievements track what your world has been through.

How this game came to be

It started about 26 years ago, with a small self-published raising sim the developer played and lost. A world built over many generations of breeding disappeared in a few years when the save data broke. This game is an attempt to build that world again — this time in a form that does not break.

About the price

• Breeding, versus, every system — all of it is in there from the start.
  
• This is a finished 1.0 release, not Early Access.
  
• Tens of hours for one playthrough; hundreds if you keep going across generations.
