Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon

Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon

Avalon is dying. King Arthur is long gone, and Knights of the Round Table are in disarray. Guardian Menhirs, the only thing that makes it possible for humans to survive in this remote land, are going dark. Your village chose its best and brightest and sent them on an epic quest to reach Kamelot, find the Grail, and save the land.

You were not among them.

They’ve never returned, and now it’s your turn to lead a band of unlikely heroes, the only ones this land can still provide. These ordinary people set off far too late, under-equipped for the task ahead, and with little hope of success.

Tainted Grail is a dark fantasy open-world RPG with fresh turn-based exploration and combat. It is based around deep, immersive story from one of the best and most innovative board games (biggest Kickstarter project of 2018!), but introduces a whole new experience crafted directly for PC.

EVERY DECISION MATTERS

Tainted Grail is a deeply immersive experience that takes the best elements of RPG adventures and brings them to the next level through intricately branching storylines. Written by Krzysztof Piskorski, one of the best Polish fantasy writers, it will draw you right in and keep you engaged, surprised, and invested in many secrets of Avalon.

In this dying world, no decision is easy or morally obvious, and you will often face impossible choices. Other times, the consequences of seemingly minor actions will haunt you in the least expected moments. In the end, your impact on Avalon is going reverberate through deep, meaningful changes to the game world - entire towns will raise or fall, land will shatter, ancient powers will be restored, or broken forever.

EXPLORE THE UNKNOWN

A major part of the game involves expeditions into the land covered by the Wyrdness, an ancient force twisting people, creatures, and even space itself in all manner of ways .There will be plenty of enemies and weird, unexpected events waiting for you. While dangerous, exploration will be the only way to gather precious resources and, ultimately, to figure out what is happening to Avalon and if it can be stopped.

STRATEGIC COMBAT

During combat, you will decide between using skills specific for your hero and figuring out the best possible combinations to do it. Every hero will bring a different playstyle, defined by unique skills, that you will continue to further develop based on your favorite tactic. You will supplement this rich toolset with various items and special moves. All of that makes every encounter a different and exciting tactical challenge!

Lawless Lands

Lawless Lands

This is a game that I’ve watched being developed for over a year. I’ve run through the early releases multiple times, checking for typos, looking for bugs, and restarting over and over. I helped work on many of the character sprites and some of the sidequests.

Overview

Many hours of game play and numerous side-quests that complement the main storyline make for an in-depth game and story. The character creation can take some getting used to, but the skills, talents, and customization when leveling works very nicely for creating a hero with the attributes you like.

Lawless Lands is the latest rpg by Corrosive Studios, a small indie dev that makes games that really scratch that exploration RPG itch that few games do. (Closest comparisons are the likes of Fallout 3 and Baldur’s Gate I, in the fun explorative sense, NOT the buggy sense)

A survival dark fantasy RPG, You explore the Large, yet streamlined open world (It has an Overworld, so you aren’t going to waste a ton of time in empty wastes) With light survival mechanics (Just eat and drink things on occasion, it’s not stressful or annoying like so many other survival games) While completing quests for various factions and growing your power/party.

All the King’s Men

All the King’s Men

The King is kidnapped from his bed in the middle of the night without a struggle. The royal militia specifically seeks out Topher’s father for his help, citing suspicious indiscretions in his past. Leaving him with many more questions than answers, and no remaining ties to his home, Topher decides to make his way across the nation on foot to meet up with his father in the capital city and put the pieces of his life together into a full image that makes sense. Along the way, meet allies and enemies alongside Topher on his journey across the land to save his family and, in turn, the Kingdom.

On-Screen Enemy Encounters / Battle System

Never feel like you’re leaving the action of the game with a random encounter! All enemies are on-screen and battles take place right where you found the enemy on the map. The active-battle system keeps fighting dynamic and allows the you to follow the action in real time in order to best strategize your next move.

Complete Control over Stat-Growth

Instead of gaining random, arbitrary stats based on some RNG behind-the-scenes, control your own destiny and customize each play-through with your own personalized leveling board. Every play-through can be different, based on the path you take to improve your party.

Fully Original Soundtrack

A truly dynamic, original soundtrack to fully immerse you within this open world adventure. Every track in the game was created specifically, and exclusively, for All the King’s Men by idea composer, Andrew LiVecchi.

Multiple Difficulties

Choose your fate before the game begins, based on the level of challenge you desire. Standard mode still offers challenging gameplay, but you’ll have access to saving whenever you desire, simply by accessing your menu, inn and item prices will be much more easily accessible, and enemies of all types will present less of a challenge. Professional mode is not for the faint of heart. Your save access will be restricted to the save crystals throughout the map, inn and item prices will be more of a stress on your wallet, and enemy battles will require careful strategy and consideration to win.

Both modes will offer the same access to the main plot of the game and the quests related to that, though some side quests will only be found in Professional Mode.

Flexible Controls

More detailed information about controls still being confirmed.

Story line

Fifteen years ago, your Father conquered Elion province and saved it from the orcs. But he wanted more, pushed into orc territory and went missing. After all that time without a ruler, the empire is on the brink of civil war and the most trusted imperial advisor and your mentor decides it is time to crown you to save the empire from falling apart. He summons you to the capital city of Elion.

Few people know about your travel and the route you will take. Mainly your family, your mentor and the Sartorian captain that has to escort you, your dear friend Elrys.

You did not reach Elion, ambushed by orcs, that never before occurred so deep into Elion province. During the ambush, you were “lucky” enough to fall of a bridge into a river. You crashed your head on a rock, but an old fisherman managed to save you. You are weak,do not remember how to fight and no one belives you are Eristan - the rest of the story is yours to tell.

  • That has many monsters and locations (from the beautiful meadows of Velden, across the forests of Calden to the Iceland’s and Sulfur fields in barons Verdons realm)

Enlightened Sentinel

Enlightened Sentinel

An exciting and memorable adventure in a diverse, thought-out world, where each creature counts down the days until the Storm - the end of existence and the beginning of a new one. If during the Storm the source of power that feeds the entire kingdom of Isdar with magic will be damaged, everyone except the undead will fall. Perhaps the Enlightened one will be able to pave the way for the salvation of Isdar with a sword and magic.

A special reward during Early Access awaits in the chest in the Royal Castle!

Enlightened Sentinel is an action-RPG that combines spectacular combat and methodical exploration. The medieval fantasy setting is presented in a low polygon style, which makes it beautiful and allows to relax. At the same time, rivals will not let you get bored, because each requires its own approach.

The project combines the classic “dungeons-and-plains” exploration style with a modern hit and dodge combat system.

Features:

-Colorful journey combined with epic combat

-Exciting story adventure

-A world filled with surprises and mysteries

-The outcome of the battle depends on the combination of abilities and magical artifacts

-Maybe it is worth looking around more closely. Sometimes even a nondescript piece of paper or a word dropped by accident leads to adventure

NOSTALGIC TRAIN

NOSTALGIC TRAIN

画面がきれいだけど、字をもっと大きくするほうがいいじゃない

Real player with 11.5 hrs in game

The most beautiful game i ever played.

More like a relaxing trip to a rural Japanese town in the 1960s. Plus a train driving simulator.

It is difficult finding the right words. Right now there is only the Japanese version released, but an English translation is planned. So right now you definitely miss the best part of the game if you can’t read Japanese. The story mode is more than just a story, it is somewhere between poetry and memories of the past.

But even if you don’t speak Japanese and always dreamed to have a time machine and go to a small Japanese village in the 1960s this is the closest you’ll ever get.
