Press release:
Singapore – January 28th 2020 – Mixed Realms Ltd is excited to announce upcoming stylistic roguelike deck builder “Gordian Quest“. With a unique blend of tactical combat, strategic gameplay, and boisterous animated heroes, Gordian Quests takes players on a journey to defeat an ultimate evil plaguing the land.

In Gordian Quest players will traverse through a land fraught with evil and monsters to challenge a sinister curse that has befallen it. Assembling a team of heroes, players will lead their group through challenging missions while working to forge bonds between their characters.

As players progress through their tumultuous journey they’ll be able to train their team and attempt to get them to work together. They will discover bonds among the heroes which will spawn access to combo abilities unique to these relationships.

As a strategic deck builder, players in Gordian Quest will be able to choose which attributes to assign to their heroes. Each hero in Gordian Quest possesses unique class skills and playstyles.

Players will have to decide how they want to train and upgrade their heroes as well as which weaponry and armor to equip in order to take on the arduous tasks that lay ahead. Featuring procedurally generated maps and dungeons, players will have to strategically react to encounters, none of which will be the same as the last.

Gordian Quest features turn-based tactical combat merged with card battling. Players will have to decide which of their hero’s cards to use throughout each turn as well as strategic placement of their team in order to get the most impact out of their abilities while also avoiding oncoming damage.

Each hero in Gordian Quest will have its own innate card abilities with varying costs, ranges, and uses. Players will also be able to add additional cards to their heroes’ decks through the crafting of equipment.

Gordian Quest features multiple levels of difficulty including a hardcore mode in which players will have to contend with the possibility of permadeath as well as casual modes that will return players to town should their team be defeated. Players will also be able to shape their gameplay and course of adventure in Gordian Quest though decisions made while encountering side quests and events.

Gordian Quest will be coming to Steam Early Access in Q1 2020. To find out more about Gordian Quest visit the official site here. To stay up to date with Mixed Realms visit the official Facebook page or Twitter.
