Tainted Grail: Conquest - Released
- Thread starter HiddenX
- Start date
I played it for an hour, shortly before the 1.0 release. Combat is similar to Slay the Spire. The monsters are proper weird and lean more towards horror than fantasy. There is a mechanic on the map where you need a special kind of torch to go through "the Wyrd" otherwise you go insane (?), which I didn't like that much (it also makes it hard to see much where you are going).
I didn't play more because I had some trouble with camera angles and widescreen, but I expect to give it another try once it had a few more patches.

Yup it's basically like slay the spire with a few different upgrade mechanics.
The fog is there as an additional mechanic whereby you cant just try exploring everything without there being a cost to it.

Well, it is also worth noting that they'll be releasing another version of this game which will be a narrative-driven RPG - not a roguelike. That version of the game is what was originally promised in the board game kickstarter and got bumped back to follow this roguelike version. So if this isn't your cup of tea, the other game might be (which is the one I'm looking forward to... the original alpha of that game was pretty decent imo).

Ahhh nice to read that, SSIGuy. That's the version I'll wait to read more about, thanks for sharing the info.
