Hi everyone!

After months of hard work, we are excited to announce that the first closed Playtest for our game, The Last Imperial Guard, is now live on Steam!

About the Game:

The Last Imperial Guard is a 2.5D turn-based tactical RPG (SRPG) adapted from the classic Chinese literature Water Margin. It follows the tragic epic of Lin Chong, the chief instructor of the 800,000 Imperial Guards. If you enjoy story-driven tactical RPGs or classic Asian fantasy, we’d love for you to check it out.

Playtest Details:

Content: Includes the tutorial and the first 2 story levels.

Playtime: Approximately 40 minutes.

Who can join: Anyone! We welcome feedback from players with all levels of gaming experience.

I used to play Tactics Arena Online a lot back in the day, but totally forgot about it. I'm pretty sure it was unavailable for years. Today I was thinking about it and found it's back online. So I gave it a play for the first time in probably a decade. I freaking loved it. Does anyone know of similar games that lean more so into Chess in terms of intricate move and attack patterns, but still have strong RPG elements like stats, RNG, leveling up, and whatnot?

Hey everyone! We’re working on Witch & Dragon: Hope of Elements, a turn-based roguelike about a witch and her little dragon.

The game is built around elemental reactions. You can combine five elements, interact with the environment, and experiment with skills and treasures to create unexpected chain reactions and combat strategies.

We’ve just released an updated demo with lots of improvements, including tutorial adjustments, UI refinements, gameplay tweaks, and bug fixes. There’s also new content to explore, including the complete Wood Domain storyline and part of the Water Domain storyline.

We’ve been working hard to improve the experience based on what we’ve learned from previous playtests. Now we’d love to hear from more players!

We’re also excited to share that the game is planned for release in 2027, and we’ll be participating in Steam Next Fest this month.

Myths from the Maw is a dark fantasy tactical RPG where sin corrupts your heroes. Delve into an otherworldly abyss to battle rival warbands, eldritch horrors, and corruption itself. Can you keep your mercenaries from falling to sin?

• Battle rival warbands in brutally tactical, turn-based skirmishes.
• Sacrifice blood to alien gods for power that corrupts your soul.
• Resist sin or greedy mercenaries will steal and prideful ones disobey.
• Lose men to betrayal as sinners defect to the Cult of the Maw.

If we've tempted you, you can follow on Kickstarter and wishlist on Steam to support us.

Cities in Frontier Valley are big and full of life. Every building can be entered and looks differently inside.

In winter, days get shorter and it is freezing outside, but townspeople still need to go to places like the market, the church, or the tavern.

But towns are just the home bases for your adventure - there is a world out there waiting for you, with dungeons, fortresses, and mystic places to explore.

The Steam Playtest is up for just a few more days. Join to check out the unrestricted version now - there is so much to discover, it will take some time!
