In the world of Thasys, most races rely on Mana to survive. This magical energy is now growing scarce, and wars for survival are devastating the lands as magical beings fight over the last remaining scraps of this life-giving force. Somewhere, legendary creatures sleep an ageless slumber, hiding in their hearts the original Mana source. Only a few chosen ones can awaken these Creatures and guide them to save Thasys. They are the witnesses of a dying world, the last hope for the living.
Prodigy is a tactical turn-based game set in a fantastic world of Thasys, torn in a never ending war. Create a team of heroes, the last hope for the dying world, and lead them to the victory fighting hand in hand with powerful Guardians. Every character is equipped with a unique set of abilities to aid allies in the battle or to vanquish their foes.

An Affront to Gamers Who Paid For This
This is abandonware by garbage devs from a failed Kickstarter project. Yet another game in the massive pile of failed Kickstarter games that never went anywhere. It's games like this that is the reason why I had always been so hesitant in Early Access games (In Development, as it's called on GOG). There is no guarantee that we will actually get the product we paid money for. GOG should honestly be ashamed of themselves for keeping this game on the store and not refunding all the people who bought this unfinished mess. Make no bones about it: this game is unfinished. Devs abandoned this game years ago, and it's quite literally in an unplayable state. Literally the only good thing about this piece of software (because I can't even consider its broken state a game) is all the beautiful assets within and the amazing art design. Whoever the art designer and art director were really went above and beyond, for the most part. There are some truly heinous designs as well, but I also chock that up to this game being in what I consider the early Alpha stage. This game sits in my library as a warning to myself to NEVER PURCHASE ANOTHER EARLY ACCESS/IN DEV GAME EVER AGAIN. My single lapse in judgement of wanting to give this game the benefit of the doubt burned me, and I won't make that mistake again. As for the game itself, I think the devs wanted to do something different, and failed massively. What they should've done was look back to older strategy games and went with what worked instead of the convoluted mess that we got here. There are so many turn-based tactics games out there (Ogre Battle March of the Black Queen, Tactics Ogre Let Us Cling Together, Final Fantasy Tactics, Might and Magic, the list goes on and on) they could've drawn from, but went with... whatever this mess is. I hate that this game is in my library, and am disappointed in myself that I got lured in with the extremely pretty artwork. This game is literally only good to harvest the assets from.
Is this helpful to you?
