About Ironheart

Pilot and customize a giant iron war mech in this alternate medieval history! In 1182 AD, the Papacy, the Caliphate, and the Mongols are at war, and they all have mechs–hulking war robots, powered by energy from mysterious "skystone" meteorites.

Ironheart is a 250,000-word interactive novel by Lee Williams. It’s entirely text-based, without graphics or sound effects, and fueled by the vast, unstoppable power of your imagination.

Our story begins in the far future, on a space mission to intercept a comet that can open wormholes through space and time. When your ship and the crew are sucked in and thrown backward through time, you awake from cryogenic suspension in 1182–at the height of the Third Crusade.

Trapped in the past, you must choose sides in the mech war between Saladin's Caliphate, the Catholic Papacy, and Genghis Khan's Mongolian Golden Horde.

Will you search doggedly for the rest of your crew or focus your energies on helping one of the factions in the war that rages around you? Do you seek to unite a divided land? Or use your advanced knowledge to gain wealth and power for yourself?

Along the way, you may meet historical figures such as Saladin, fight off attacks from the notorious order of Assassins and the secretive Knights Templar, or even take part in a grand tournament of mechs!
  • Play as male, female or non-binary; gay, straight, bi or asexual.
  • Pilot a giant medieval war machine! Choose how to equip, customise and decorate your machine.
  • Take sides in the Third Crusade as a knight or emir. Rise through the ranks of your chosen faction or strike out alone.
  • Hone your ability in a wide range of skills including warfare, diplomacy, medicine and engineering.
  • Manage your own fiefdom. Decide how to govern, what to build and who to recruit.
  • Entangle yourself with a wide supporting cast of characters, from fools and bandits to priests and princesses.
  • Seek revenge, strive to build a better world or just live it up in the 12th century!

What new future will you forge now that the old one is gone?

✦ AI summary

Players praise this choice-driven narrative game for its compelling writing, meaningful decisions that lead to different endings, and engaging historical fiction premise with memorable characters. However, some criticize the stat system as poorly designed and overly punishing for specialization, while others note the story feels somewhat short and ends abruptly, though those who connect with it find the experience magical and emotionally resonant.

the stats are nonsensical and feel as if they do nothing, it punishes you for not being good in one thing terribly. I have restarted the game multiple times with different approaches, but it punishes you for not raising a particular stat, god forbid you play a mechanic or specialize in anything in particular. Cause even if you do, its still apparently not enough. I liked the idea of the story and history, but the execution is very much so infuriatingly not worth it.
Recommended Oct 7, 2025
10/10 novel. Great writing, powerful choices, and characters to remember! Little bit short to my taste, but that's just immense feeling of nostalgia, left after the epilogue. It's hard to let go this story and the characters. This game is one of those, that you don't want to replay after first walkthrough, because it was magical, and will be remembered.

The game has a very intriguing setting and although it does start a bit slow it does manage to improve after the first chapters. The choices you make do matter somewhat and the game does have decent replaybility. The ending is a bit abrupt and sudden but it's still satisfying if you play your cards right.

Games like Undertale that remember what you did

Undertale's own listing calls it the RPG where you don't have to destroy anyone. Games like Undertale that keep that idea: permanent choices, fights you can talk past, worlds that notice.

Most games like Slay the Spire copy the cards and lose the map. These keep the risky-or-safe choice, from a three-floor train to a deck made of poker hands.

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
