About This Game

Can a world on the brink be saved by criminals and rejects instead of traditional heroes? Blackguards, a turn-based strategy RPG, delves into this premise. You will navigate a gritty tale filled with murder and illicit substances across over 180 unique hex-based battlefields. Step into the shoes of a mage, warrior, or hunter and customize their abilities to your preference. The difficult campaign weaves a story of betrayal and loss, where your choices at crucial turning points decide the ending. With more than 40 hours of dark fantasy gameplay, you'll lead a party of up to five characters against ever-evolving tactical challenges across 180+ battlemaps. Enjoy hand-drawn scenery that looks great even when you are losing. Your tactics depend on your choice of 90 spells and 40 abilities, allowing for aggressive, defensive, or strategic approaches. You can even use the environment, such as exploding barrels or swamp gas, to damage foes—or accidentally yourself.
