About the game
Kinstrife is a non-linear singleplayer medieval RPG with physically simulated combat – become a knight errant in tumultuous 13th-century Germany!
Journey through immersive landscapes filled with castles, monasteries, villages and forests. Travel with your sword at your side and your trusted retinue behind you, as you build up your skill, renown and wealth. Fight your way through realistic medieval battles, duels and sieges, rise up among the lords of the land and take part in tournaments to win fame and riches.
Our cutting-edge physically simulated combat system makes the impact of each swing count – weapons don’t simply clip through but instead deliver staggering blows, characters fall when losing their balance and horse charges knock down your opponents. Feel like you’re wielding a sword yourself, mastering your moves with various historical weapons: Each attack, feint or parry creates unique, interesting, natural situations – rewarding experimentation, different playstyles and replayability.

About the developer
Finitude is a small remote studio creating Kinstrife, a grounded historical strategy RPG that combine character progression, strategic management, and physics-based combat. Founded by two people who intially met as modders and spent years experimenting and learning game development while managing other commitments, the studio has grown into a team dedicated to making deep historical games that put players in the middle of living, breathing worlds as individual characters.
The studio operates on trust and long-term thinking rather than hierarchy and quick wins. They value sustainable development over crunch, iteration over perfectionism, and are committed to building both a franchise and a team designed to endure. Fiinitude focuses on creating deep experiences in a genrer space they feel is underexplored and underserved.
With five people currently on the team, Finitude is developing a public demo for Kinstrrife and laying the foundation for a franchise.
