The planet where Heavy Duty takes place is a unique, self-sufficient and realistic world. A player will be able to see mountain ranges, ice caps, feel storms in the atmosphere, and change the landscape which will influence the environment by these actions, just like any person can do on the Earth. Any part of the planet can become a war zone as monstrous aliens try to invade it in hot battles. Ready-to-die characters and robot fights will leave this planet a real hell, littered with their remains.

Numen, a beautiful world of Greek myths and legends, romantic ancient times, fierce battles with monstrosities, rituals, and bloody sacrifices make this game an epic adventure that will be interesting to everybody.
