Press release:
Frankfurt/Germany, Copenhagen/Denmark, October 29th 2018: In September “WARTILE” received a massive update which not only improved the game but also redefined the whole story of the game. And now, to celebrate Álfablót, the Halloween of the Vikings, yet another free update has been released.

“Boo!”, says Michael Rud Jakobsen from PlayWood Project, while looking at the new battleboard which will be available untill 18th November. Spooky pumpkins, a fresh helmet, a new token and many hours of pure fun, wandering around the pumpkin fields.

And that’s it. However, as a small teaser for the future of “WARTILE”, expect some bigger reveals in the near future. To celebrate the new update, WARTILE is now 35% off on Steam.

About WARTILE
Wartile is a single player and multiplayer real time tabletop inspired game for PC with a strong turn based flavor to it. The game replicates the experience of tabletop gaming but with faster, more immediate combat. Wartile’s visually intricate digital dioramas aim to introduce a dramatically impactful presence combined with a rewarding RTS combat dynamic. Players are challenged to lead a group of Viking warriors through a series of visually stunning battle boards each with its own story and lore.

Featuring single and multiplayer modes, Wartile thrusts players in hand-to-hand and ranged combat and provides players with the ability to level up and customize their figures with a variety of weapons and armor. Exploration of the highly detailed Battle Boards will also unlock items the player can utilize throughout the various quests.

Wartile introduces a unique turn based aspect to its RTS gameplay where players can add a tactical edge to their combat by utilizing Ability cards and Godly cards as their figurine gains more experience. A gentle cooldown system gives players enough time to bring ability cards into play, which will emphasize the games tactical feature as an RTS about decisive decision-making and battle board positioning. Godly cards and abilities can be assembled by the player before engaging in battle and used during combat and provide health, defense and attack boosts during challenging combat engagements.
