Wartales: The Ultimate Adventure Game for Gamers Seeking Epic Quests
Wartales, an exciting medieval open-world RPG game with turn-based combat, is currently available in Early Access on Steam and developed by Shiro Games, the creators of the Viking RTS Northgard. The game focuses on mercenary management, with players leading a group of soldiers through a story-driven campaign filled with morally ambiguous decisions. The turn-based combat is not groundbreaking but works well enough to keep players engaged.
Wartales’ survival-style management system keeps players invested in the game by entrusting them with the lives of their digital party members. The camera zooms in during battles and conversations, but most of the time is spent wandering the game’s isometric overworld, full of lovely landscapes and rural areas that make it feel like a vast world.
The slow pace and vast horizons make the game seem huge, but the quaint and immediate concerns make it easy to enjoy walking around and exploring for hours. While some players have reported that the later hours of the game can feel like a grind, the open-ended mission structure allows for players to complete contracts at their leisure, making it perfect for people who lead busy lives.
Wartales’ unique blend of RPG, turn-based combat, survival sim, and management game elements make it an ideal game for anyone who wants to go on an epic adventure.
