Steam App ID: 492690

Your evil mentor, Mendechaus \(Richard Ridings\) has decided to take time out from his conquest of the known world to put you through your paces in the Crucible \- a deadly trial concocted somewhere in the Aether, where you must face an endless onslaught of his most monstrous creations \- all in the name of his amusement\. Death is inevitable, but the question is: how long will you last?         Six all\-new levels designed exclusively for Crucible mode, which will push your skills to the brink   Two unique challenges, varying from the scalding to the incinerating   Leaderboards for each map and challenge combination, so you can see who of all the Underlords is the most long\-lived   Three powerful Lifeline abilities, should you enter into dire straits   Three prestigious new Worker skins to unlock should you survive long enough   Dozens of new units and variants including the Democorn, Mandalf the Maroon, and the Chunder King himself, Baron von Pukemuch   Scores of deliciously depraved new voiceover lines from the exceptional Richard Ridings as Mendechaus, your enigmatic mentor and bloodthirsty invigilator
