Developed by Outerdawn, this polished turn-based strategy game is perfectly suited to mobile, with deep yet accessible gameplay, clean yet personality-filled visuals, and action that’s suitable for long sessions on the sofa or quick sessions on the bus.
Battles in Grimguard Tactics take place on small, grid-like maps. With over 20 unique RPG classes, each with its own lore and role, players can recruit diverse Heroes. These Heroes can be further customized through 3 distinct subclasses, with ultra-rare and powerful factions like the Dawnseekers available to unlock.
You can level-up and Ascend these units to increase their potency, but the real skill is in learning the hidden elemental effects that come from combining the right units at the right time.
That, and planning your actions several moves ahead, like a chess grandmaster reaching forward through time to defeat your opponent before they even know what’s happening to them.
Gameplay-wise, Grimguard Tactics is a solid bet. But gameplay isn’t the main topic of this article. We’re here to talk about lore.
