🎮 General Questions
What is ENDALOR? ▾
ENDALOR is a medieval dark fantasy survival RPG developed by Diorite Games, available on Steam Early Access from March 30, 2026. It combines open world exploration, Soulslike stamina-based combat, base building, crafting, and cooperative multiplayer for 1–4 players.
Who developed ENDALOR? ▾
ENDALOR was developed and published by Diorite Games, a two-person independent game studio. The team has worked on ENDALOR for several years, from early development through a Steam Next Fest demo in 2023, a public playtest in 2024, and the Early Access launch in 2026.
Is ENDALOR like Valheim? ▾
ENDALOR shares similarities with Valheim in its combination of survival mechanics, base building, crafting progression, and co-op multiplayer. However, ENDALOR features a more Soulslike combat focus, a handcrafted (non-procedural) world, and a medieval dark fantasy setting distinct from Valheim's Norse mythology.
Is ENDALOR like Dark Souls? ▾
ENDALOR's combat system is heavily inspired by Soulslike games — featuring stamina management, dodge rolls with invincibility frames, enemy attack pattern learning, and challenging bosses. However, it is not purely a Soulslike — the survival, crafting, and building elements add considerable depth beyond the combat focus.
What platform is ENDALOR on? ▾
ENDALOR is currently available exclusively on Windows PC via Steam. There are no announced plans for console ports or Mac/Linux versions at this time.
Is ENDALOR free to play? ▾
No. ENDALOR is a paid game on Steam. The Early Access price is expected to increase at full release — buying now locks in the current Early Access price.
⚔️ Gameplay Questions
How does stamina work in ENDALOR? ▾
Stamina is consumed by every combat action — attacking, dodging, rolling, blocking, and sprinting. It regenerates automatically when not in use. Running your Stamina to zero in combat leaves you unable to dodge and completely vulnerable. Always keep a reserve for at least one dodge roll.
How do I get Iron in ENDALOR? ▾
Mine Iron Ore from rock deposits found in the Rocky Highlands and underground cave systems. Then build a Furnace (requires Lizard Lungs from Lizard Grunts) and smelt Iron Ore into Iron Bars for crafting Iron-tier weapons and armor.
How do I build a Furnace in ENDALOR? ▾
Kill Lizard Grunt enemies to collect Lizard Lungs. Then craft a Furnace at your Workbench using approximately 20× Stone, 10× Wood, and 2× Lizard Lungs. The Furnace unlocks metal smelting.
How do I set a spawn point in ENDALOR? ▾
Craft and place a Bed, then interact with it to set it as your active respawn point. Without an active Bed, dying sends you to the world origin point — potentially far from your base and death bag.
What do I do with gems in ENDALOR? ▾
Gems like Topaz (worth ~40 coins) and Diamonds (worth 70+ coins) can be sold to the Lizard Man merchant traders found in key locations throughout the world. They provide fast early-game gold for purchasing items you need.
How do I level up in ENDALOR? ▾
Earn XP by killing enemies, exploring new areas, and completing objectives. Upon leveling up, you receive Skill Points to invest in Health, Strength, or Dexterity attributes.
Can you ride mounts in ENDALOR? ▾
There are no mounts in the current Early Access build. Movement is on foot. The developers have not announced mount mechanics at this time.
Is there a map in ENDALOR? ▾
ENDALOR features a world map that reveals explored areas as you travel. The map is accessible through the inventory/map interface. Unexplored areas appear as fog of war.
🔥 Survival & Crafting
What should I craft first in ENDALOR? ▾
Priority order: 1) Campfire, 2) Bed (set respawn point immediately), 3) Workbench, 4) Stone Spear (weapon), 5) Cloth Armor set, 6) Wooden Bow with Arrows.
How do I get water in ENDALOR? ▾
Craft or find a Water Jar, then walk to a river, stream, or pond and interact with the water surface to fill it. Keep multiple jars for long expeditions away from water sources.
What food is best in ENDALOR early game? ▾
Red Berries are the best early food — abundant, provide minor Strength buff, and restore Food meter. Cook Carrots and Meat at a Campfire for better nutrition values as soon as possible.
How do I heal in ENDALOR? ▾
Use Health Potions (crafted from Herbs at Workbench, or found as loot). Keep your Food meter high for passive health recovery assist. Potions can be hotbar-slotted for quick use in combat.
What happens when you die in ENDALOR? ▾
You respawn at your Bed location. Items in hotbar slots are retained. Items in inventory/body slots drop as a loot bag at your death location — return to it to recover them.
