❤ Gameplay Mechanics

The turn-based combat system allows players to strategically control a party of characters. Enemies include Hussites, Ottomans, and more sinister foes. The mechanics are easy to learn, yet provide enough nuance to keep battles engaging. A key mechanic is the use of "feints" - special abilities that can give the player's party an advantage, such as distracting enemies or performing area-of-effect attacks.

❤ Progression and Equipment

Instead of a traditional leveling system, players progress by acquiring better equipment and supplies through exploration and quests. This equipment-based progression system keeps the focus on decision-making, as players must carefully consider how to outfit their characters. The steady flow of new and improved gear eliminates any need for grinding.

❤ Exploration and Narrative

Alongside combat, the game emphasizes exploration and character interactions. Players can traverse the hand-painted world, uncovering secret passages and hidden paths as they advance the story. The narrative is driven by the player's interactions with a diverse cast of characters, including Catholics, Hussites, and more sinister figures.

❤ Difficulty and Pacing

The difficulty is well-balanced, with early encounters being straightforward and later battles requiring more strategic planning. Enemies do not respawn, and players are often given the option to avoid battles, ensuring a streamlined progression without repetitive combat. This focused design maintains the game's momentum, allowing players to complete the 3-4 hour experience at a brisk, yet satisfying pace.
