Tales & Tactics promises a deep, many-layered strategy experience that you can take at your own pace.
, which flips the script so you're defending the spire from those pesky heroes, are making a full-fledged game. Table 9 Studio has announced Tales & Tactics, a blend of"the roguelike strategy genre with the squad-based autobattler genre" that's due out later this year, and it looks like the devs are putting the lessons they learned from Downfall to good use.
Taking place on a hex-based board, Tales & Tactics sees you build up a roster of characters who each have"a unique combination of traits and archetypes". You'll want to build a deck of characters whose skills work well together to overcome your enemies or, if you're anything like me, just throw everything with a big damage number on the board and hope for the best.
Table 9 seems to be going for the same kind of mechanical depth and complexity that it achieved in Downfall, but it sounds like you'll be able to ease into it at a speed that suits you."The mechanics will only get more complex if you want them to," reads the game's description, boasting about the game's"'complexity at your own pace' unlock system".
Those layers of complexity seem to be what the game's truly about."Unlike many roguelikes, new features unlocked in Tales & Tactics rarely ever directly increase power," says Table 9,"but rather add new opportunities, mechanics, and options—increasing the run's complexity," but not necessarily your strength.
The description rather stubbornly refuses to tell us what a Devils' Deal actually is, but I'm going to go out on a limb and say, judging by the name, it's something that offers a bonus to one thing to the detriment of another, or something similar.was much-beloved, and currently holds an"Overwhelmingly Positive" review score on Steam. Naturally, players have reacted positively to news of a proper game from the studio.
