The Mighty Quest for Epic Loot is a free-to-play real-time strategy video game developed by Ubisoft Montreal. The game combines castle defense and dungeon crawling mechanics, allowing players to build their own castle and to attack those built by other players in order to collect various in-game resources such as Crowns, Gold, and Gear.
Players defend their castles to keep their resources and attack others to take their resources. The player can play as one of four different types of Heroes. These are The Knight, The Archer, The Mage, and The Runaway.
The Mighty Quest for Epic Loot entered closed Beta on June 10, 2013. Players could gain access to the closed Beta by signing up on the official website for a chance to receive a Beta key, or by purchasing one of the founder's (Double O) packs through the in-game store. The game was also made available on Steam through their Early Access program on November 18, 2013.
