About

A strategy RPG focused on rebuilding your capital city and planning your tactical excursions into the wildland of the Old World. You'll be responsible for the fate of your people through difficult choices. Will you bring safety and comfort or will you die and be forgotten?

Tactics: Age of Affliction is a 2D turn-based combat simulation, in which you script your tactics in advance, and watch the battles play out. You might plan an attack on the Plains of Eorn and fight some dangerous Worn Trolls, so bring some fire magic, or visit the Forests of Bree and get ambushed by The Fae with their regenerative magic. The sky's the limit in this deep combat sim.

Will you save the world from itself?

Features

Every action your heroes take is scripted in advance. If you want to spend weeks gathering herbs while your allies get mowed down fighting The Weevils in The Mountains, that's on you. You should definitely help them, but maybe you'd like to pick their bodies clean after they're defeated. It's up to you.
