## Description

Sword & Glory invites you into a vivid branching-text RPG where permadeath is real and every choice shapes your fate. Defend your clan, seize glory, and earn legendary titles like 'the Brave', 'the Greedy', or 'the Silver King'. Death judges your actions, and your legend is written by the paths you take.

Gameplay centers on branching text decisions, a simple yet challenging combat system (rock-paper-scissors with timing), and deep customization—from character creation and perks to equipment and home village upgrades. Craft your story, tailor your fighting style, and chase the glory you seek. Includes GameCenter leaderboards and achievements to compare your legend with others.
