TAINTED GRAIL: CONQUEST – MAIN FEATURES
A unique blend of roguelike and RPG.
A randomly generated map invaded by all sorts of beasts, full of unique locations and surprising narrative tidbits that tie in with the game’s main campaign.
New combat gameplay mechanics that stay true to the roots of a deep, tactical card game, but with dynamic, arcade-style pacing – a battle system based on character customization and development with various skills, decks, runes, and lots of items to try out.
Fresh base-building mechanics: players will be able to change the game’s mechanics and carry over their progress during their runs by finding ways of placing and upgrading buildings in their village.
ABOUT TAINTED GRAIL
Tainted Grail is a dark, open-world fantasy RPG. It is based on a deep and immersive story from one of the best board games (the biggest Kickstarter project of 2018!) but introduces a totally new experience crafted specifically for PC. Full of stirring art and incredible non-linear narrative content, the game will offer a unique mix of discovery, challenge, and exciting cRPG character progression, as well as a deep, tactical combat system.
