Your role in this game is to command a flying ship and its crew, traveling between floating bases, fighting with enemies, trading goods, etc. The game is more strategy based than tactical (you mostly give commands to the crew and observe the results). There is no end goal for the game, and you can play as long as your character does not die. The game is under development, but is generally playable.
Nilia is a turn-based Roguelike game.

Each gem color represents some different traits that you can add to your character:
 
 
Give orders to your crew at the beginning of each combat round and watch the result when turn passed.

Almost everything in the game can be changed, added or removed via data files, which are plain XML files.
