A turn-based strategy game focused on outwitting your enemies through deception, Artifice: War Tactics takes some inspiration from XCOM and Into the Breach – challenging you to carefully place your allies in order to set up devious traps, trigger truly devastating combos, and reclaim your kingdom. Only the most cunning players will survive wave after wave of relentless foes, conquer strongholds, seize treasure, and live to fight another day!
Artifice: War Tactics has three core pillars – Deduce, Anticipate and Maximize.
- Deduce: Observe enemy positions and deduce where they are most likely to set up an ambush.
- Anticipate: Anticipate where the enemy is most likely to move in the following turn to position your champions.
- Maximize: Set attack zones and trigger a chain reaction of combos to strike as many enemies as possible
Key Features
- Set traps: Place your allies to set up attack zones called Overwatches. When enemies enter the Overwatch, your champions attack!
- Let none escape: Trap enemy lines in your Overwatches by positioning allies carefully.
- Trigger chain reactions: Assemble an array of champions to pierce, burn, poison, and pull enemies into other Overwatches – creating an explosive chain reaction.
- 16+ playable champions: Unlock and customize every ally. Upgrade their traits, stat bonuses, and new abilities as the campaign progresses.
- Spoils of war: Bolster your squad by pillaging enemy provinces for unique loot.
- 5+ bosses: Challenge bosses in their strongholds to claim new territory.
