A Song of Steel and Spirits

A Song of Steel & Spirits is a turn-based tactical RPG set in a pixelated realm where swords are sharp, magic is unstable, and alcoholic spirits are abundant. Assemble a crew of mercenaries, misfits, and magically inebriated wizards in an attempt to escape the dungeon and uncover the mystery of how they ended up there in the first place. Plot your moves across tight grid-based maps, combining strategic positioning, class synergies, and perfectly timed strikes to survive brutal dungeon encounters, monster ambushes, and the occasional bar brawl. - 🗡️ Fast Turn-Based Combat – Master a grid-based combat system that is easy to learn and difficult to master, with positional strategy, environmental hazards, and enemy champions with unique abilities and quirks. - ⚔️ Party-Based RPG – Level up your heroes and unlock new abilities that add endless possibilities of team-ups. Expect tactical challenges that will test your mettle, that only all your party members working together can solve. - ⌛ Timed Strikes & Momentum – Master abilities and block enemy attacks by activating your action button at the precise moment in the animation for maximum impact. Perfect strikes contribute towards your character's momentum. Maxing out your momentum grants your hero a bonus action that triggers immediately in combat. Save your momentum for the perfect window of opportunity, perhaps during a boss fight when you need it most to deliver the killing blow. - 🏰 Satirical Fantasy World – Explore a land of brooding necromancers, belly-dancing snake-charmers, and bureaucracy-obsessed goblins while you fight your way to the surface. - 🧙 Pixel-Perfect Nostalgia – Classic 16-bit inspired visuals with expressive sprites, quirky animations, and lovingly handcrafted maps. - 🍻 Tavern Tales – Recruit new party members and uncover mysteries, lore, and perhaps even the recipe to the perfect draft.
