A tactical RPG. Valiant Tactics features turn-based gameplay taking place on hexagonal maps. The fights are devoid of the randomness factor, as specific attacks always hit the target and deal preset amount of damage. The story of the game takes place in a fantasy universe and we can control a small group of characters who reset between sessions.

Valiant Tactics is the debut project of the three-person Georgian indie studio Felid Entertainment. Set in a quasi-medieval fantasy universe, this tactical RPG is characterized by turn-based battles devoid of randomness (including RNG).

Gameplay

We control five heroes (with three "reserves") and conduct a roguelite campaign, participating in subsequent short battles on hexagonal boards. Thanks to the lack of accuracy throws and other random elements, the course of battles is predictable. The enemy's intentions are signaled, and each strike deals a certain amount of damage. This means that after making a move, we already know what damage our side will suffer in the next turn, and success depends on the sequence of skills that weaken or redirect this inevitable loss. Some tiles have status effects, such as poison clouds, slowing mud, and temporary boosts, but even they are subject to deterministic rules displayed by the interface.
