Press release:
Israel – March 27, 2023.
The Israel-based solo indie games developer David Vinokurov are today very thrilled and glad to announce that his turn-based tactical roguelite/dungeon-crawler “Netherguild“, is now available for PC via Steam Early Access.

Players will get to face against the dangers that lurk underground within the two new areas added to the game since the demo: the Bandit Stronghold and the City of Mist, both featuring unique foes, challenges and events, as well as the new mechanic that allows you to push enemies off the map into the floor below.

About Early Access:
Netherguild’s Early Access phase is planned to last for the next few years, with content, polish and systems being added throughout – together with the community.

About Netherguild:
Netherguild is a turn-based tactical roguelite dungeon-crawler where you play as the leader of the Netherguild – controlling your little voxel fighters in expeditions below the earth in a desperate attempt to find a cure to a strange plague.
Explore, camp, and fight as far as you can before heading back to resupply. What will you discover underground?

Features:

Turn Based Combat: With no attack RNG, so you can count on your units and know when to engage enemies and when to fall back.
Bonfires: and a food system which affects your characters with passive effects throughout their expedition.
Oddities: random events you discover which present choices underground.
Replay Value: with random equipment, random character backgrounds with different skills each playthrough and procedurally generated levels every time you descend underground mean that playthroughs feel different every time.
Roguelite with Persistence and Story: Keep your characters at the end of each expedition (if they survive), equip them with powerful items and level them up over time. Netherguild’s story progresses the more you explore and find out about the secrets of its world.
Dungeon Crawling Resource Management: Balance powerful abilities across long expeditions underground.
Original Game World: Netherguild is unconventional low-fantasy; No Orcs, no Elves, and no wizards casting fireballs. Expect to find strange creatures, machines and denizens far underground.
Cute Voxel Aesthetics: Contrasted by a story with serious themes, as you face against plague and conspiracy!
