The game was funded on Kickstarter in 2015 and it appeared on Steam a few months ago. Despite the fact that For the King is the first game created by IronOak, it gained a lot of popularity even before the release of the game.

Storyline and characters

For the King has a really simple storyline with elements typical for most old school RPG and jRPG games. The king was murdered by an unknown assassin. The Fahrul kingdom is in turmoil and other countries decided to use the death of the king for their own advantage. The queen does not have a choice. She asks citizens of Fahrul to help her protect the homeland. You are among many people who decided to help her. You created a team of random heroes who are going on the adventure. Your task is relatively simple. You have to protect your dear kingdom from enemies. At the very beginning of the game you can choose from four different classes. These are Hunter, Blackshmith, Scholar, and Minstrel.

After a while you will be able to unlock more interesting characters. With the most interesting class being a hobo. He starts with underwear, a stick and has all stats set to 70. While you should choose Hobo? He is like a blank sheet of paper. Without strengths or weaknesses so you can build him in any way you want.  

Gameplay and game modes
