- In a nutshell: we travel through a bleak world and fight, we fight a lot; there's no specific plot here
The world is plunged into chaos, and these are the best conditions for scoundrels and other types from under the dark star to crawl out, fulfilling the whims of those who put the heaviest purse on the table. The player directs one of such groups of mercenaries, wandering around the depressing medieval world viewed from an isometric perspective. The goal of the game is not clearly defined. You can go wherever you want. However, this isn't a walking simulator. A very large part of the gameplay consists of challenging tactical and turn-based skirmishes.
This is a good choice for people who value a lot of freedom in games. Initially, the high level of difficulty may only be irritating due to the fact that the mechanics of managing a group (there is character development and permanent death) or combat are kind of obscure. Besides, everything's in short supply at first - food, money, equipment. However, it is worth grit your teeth, especially if you are a fan of turn-based battles. Wartales proved that it still has it even in 2024, and introduced some fresh ideas. We can decide ourselves who will take action first, rather than depending on an initiative system. An interesting feature is also the ability to refresh action points through certain actions.
