INTRODUCTION

Fight, Epic towering creatures while blending magical abilities with an arsenal of powerful weapons to prevent the world from crumbling.

FEATURES

• The World is Your Weapon At the heart of Eternal Strands beats a revolutionary new system for gameplay interactions: heat spreads, cold chills, and real-time destruction allows for unprecedented reactivity in combat. Hurl burning tree trunks at enemies with telekinetic powers, snap nearby trees to block opposing fire, or channel raw telekinetic force to rip boulders from the ground.
• Weaver of Magic Wear the Mantle, a magical cloak that channels raw magic into raging flame, chilling ice, and telekinetic force. Combine your growing array of powers with enchanted weapons and armor crafted from slain enemies to create a custom look and style. Block incoming attacks with a wall of magical ice, lash out waves of flame from a massive two-handed blade, or toss enemies off a cliff with raw force.
• Stand Against Giants Face gigantic adversaries and defeat them through a mix of sword, spell, and mobility. Leap onto and climb their massive forms to attack from different angles. Shatter armor or slice at weak spots to diminish their protection. Use ice to pin limbs of a towering foe, arcane flames to burn their fur, or catch lobbed projectiles and turn their attacks back upon them in battles that will leave scars upon the land.
• Unstable Climate to Master Enhance the effectiveness of your ice abilities during a flash freeze to open up new paths. Use a heatwave to start a wildfire and watch it spread towards enemies as it consumes the tinder-dry trees and grass around it.
• A World Rich with Secrets Explore the wilds, the capital city of Dynevron, and the secrets beneath as every surface is climbable. Magical abilities can create bridges, burn barriers, or launch Brynn across the world. The next-generation physics system encourages and rewards player creativity in exploration as much as combat. As the Enclave’s secrets unfold, return to base camp to consult with a rich cast of characters. Each are keen to discover the mysteries of what happened to this lost bastion of power and knowledge.
• A realm of mystery, opportunity, danger, and wonder: the Enclave awaits.

INTRODUCTION

The Thaumaturge is a character driven RPG with a rich story, morally ambiguous choices and turn based combat.

FEATURES

• A hero with a flaw
• Wiktor Szulski is a thaumaturge, a master of mystical arts, who can peer into the hearts and minds of others, uncovering their deepest emotions, desires, and secrets. However, his powers also feed into his flaw of pride, which can present him with various opportunities or lead to negative consequences.
• Untold mysteries waiting to be revealed
• No secret or intrigue is safe when the thaumaturge is around. Your unique abilities will give you a great edge in solving detective investigations, becoming a savvy socialite or even dealing with the criminal underground. Explore the world using Wiktor’s perception, seeking personal secrets hidden in objects, that provide different perspectives on events that may seem obvious at first glance.
• Taming mythical creatures
• As a thaumaturge, you draw your power from the ability to summon salutors – mystical, folklore-inspired demons that inhabit the ethereal realm. Use their powers to manipulate your foes, sway the minds of allies, and fight opponents in turn-based tactical combat.
• Unique turn-based combat
• Engage in deep, tactical combat against various opponents – some physical, others more elusive. Wiktor’s thaumaturgical abilities let you bend the rules of reality, summoning demons to unleash powerful attacks or gain strategic advantages.
• A rich gallery of characters
• The early 20th-century Warsaw is a multicultural metropolis with inhabitants from all walks of life. Among them, you’ll meet historical figures like the monk Rasputin or Tsar Nicholas II. The story also introduces you to a gallery of characters connected to Wiktor’s troubled past such as his well-versed sister Ligia or Abaurcy, a childhood friend who turned to a life of crime.

FAN ART

Art style is pretty and detailed and feels alive.

Story is fun and very interesting

Units/Enemies are great as alot of variety to them and all have own stats and look and own attacks to learn in order to use them correctly and to avoid certain attacks.

Spells are great as alot of variety to them and all own uses such as planting mines that can be set of by anyone so be careful but great as can place them around a enemy to damage them as soon as they move and so much more is great.

Campaigns are great as all offer own story and own areas and own units and heroes to use all with own feel.

Difficulty options are great as offer alot of choice and can be adjusted to suit own style.

Artifacts are great as can equip them giving you bonuses for damage and and so many more options and all have own stats and feel to them.

Skills are great as can adjust to suit own style when you level up and make own build personally always try increase army size as more units means more attacks per turn and more amount of each types of units.

Alot of content and easy to pick up as just so much in the game and so many options.

Can be daunting as alot to learn.
