Your Perfect Plan
Plan your next moves with dynamic turn-based combat, strategically triggering epic chains of events across the battlefield:
- Use Timeline Effects to speed up, delay or swap time position to impact turn order and outsmart your enemies.
- Play with your surroundings that can explode, ignite enemies, or block sight… changing the outcome of the battles
- Leverage physical effects like knock backs, forced facings, flanking bonuses, and damage-over-time to dominate every encounter.
- Your team.
Progress at Your Pace
- Choose your own path, your own difficulty through the map.
- Take on high-risk, high-reward missions, head straight for boss encounters, or slow down to gather resources to increase your chance of success.
- All missions contribute to gradual progress and reflect the type of experience you decide.
A Roguelite Loop Adapted to Turn-Based Combat
- Adapt to random skill drops by combining them with your unique load outs generating different synergies.
- Breeze through the procedural levels to beat unique bosses and understand the world in Stasia.
- Even if you fail a mission, some progress is rewarded.
A Crimson Rebellion
In a world drained by the Purge, blood is defiance. Each drop of it paints the world in reds and blacks, as a reminder that life fights back. This is not just violence, it’s a vivid rebellion in a pale, colorless world.
