Checkmark Games unleashes the fantasy strategy game, “Shattered Throne” onto Steam Early Access for Windows, Mac, and Linux PCs.
The Divine Empire has fallen. Hordes of Undead ravage her lands, and the forgotten Fae ride in retribution. Many battle for personal ambition, others for justice, and some just do not have anything better to do. Knights, necromancers, blade dancers, angels, ghouls, and many more all clash on the fields of battle.
Check out the YouTube trailer of Shattered Throne, featuring some of the gameplay that takes place in the game:
Turn based strategy at its finest. Fight for three different factions, each with their unique play style. Choose a General to command your army, each with their own advantages and powers to turn the tide of battle. Master the combo system to destroy your opponent. Upgrade villages to sustain your assault, and claim victory with champion and heroic troops forged in the fires of conflict. No random numbers to blame, carefully consider each move as you work to out-think your enemy.
Fight through the sprawling campaign, engage other players in asynchronous online matches, or simply play one of several skirmish maps.
Why Early Access?
“Shattered Throne features 3 unique factions which will require checks and feedback to balance and ensure each is enjoyable to play. Several of the harder game modes which are planned (Puzzle mode, Challenges, and Campaign hard mode) cannot be attempted until a proper balance and stability is reached.
Early access also gives an opportunity to test the online server backend, to ensure it can properly handle its job under load.
As the sole designer and developer, this project has also gotten too close to me, that it is difficult for me to honestly judge the fun and challenge factor, your feedback and help will be key in ensuring the final product is fully realized.”
Checkmark Games is just one rather geeky guy with social anxiety that loves making games.
