One of the best DnD games out there
Story is a bit meh, but the gameplay rocks. I also really like the clean UI and visibility of the dice rolls.

Created and written by lifelong fans of Pen & Paper RPGs, comes Solasta: Crown of the Magister.
Bring the authentic Tabletop gaming experience to your PC!
Roll for initiative, take attacks of opportunity, manage player location and the verticality of the battle field. Set yourself up for the finishing strike and possibly roll a natural 20 at that key moment of battle.In Solasta, you take control of four heroes, each with unique skills that complement one another. Every hero expresses themselves in the adventure, making each action and dialog choice a dynamic part to the story. Players will create their heroes just as they would in a pen-and-paper game by choosing their race, class, personality and rolling for their stats.
You make the choices, dice decide your destiny.
Key Features:
- An Epic Team Adventure
Discover the shattered world of Solasta: explore ruins and dungeons for legendary treasures, learn the truth of an age-old cataclysm - and stop it from happening again.
Create your very own party of adventurers with our Character Creation Tool in the classic tabletop RPG tradition. Breathe life into your heroes, and see their personalities reflected in their dialogue. Tailor your squad to your preferred strategy and maximize your party's abilities. The choice is yours. - Discover a Mysterious & Dynamic World
Delve into long forgotten dungeons to unearth ancient artifacts, but stay watchful of light and darkness: many dangers hide in the dark, but a light can attract monsters. Some enemies have darkvision, some may flee from your torch... Successful adventurers will learn to use it to their advantage.
Fight monsters in squad-level, turn-based, tactical combat. Solasta's dynamic environment offers some interesting tactical options. Bridges can collapse, leaving enemies stranded and vulnerable. Walls and columns can be pushed over - on top of your foes, if you do it right. The world is your playground. - Prepare to Think in Three Dimensions
The dungeons in Solasta are more than flat game-boards. Climb, jump, or fly around obstacles. Evade or surprise foes from above or below. Push them into chasms or drop things on their heads. Position yourself on high grounds to start the fight with an advantage.
Size also matters. Escape through narrow passages where bigger enemies won't fit and crawl through tunnels to find secret areas. Take advantage of the environment to find cover suited to your own size. Watch out, though - the monsters are also thinking vertically. - Dungeon Maker
In Solasta, the adventure does not stop after the campaign is over. Unleash your creativity and craft your own dungeons to play and share with friends with the snap of a finger using the in-game Dungeon Maker! From the room layout, monster composition and treasure the party will find – down to the decoration and lighting of each room or the music track playing – everything is decided by you.
Note that the Dungeon Maker is a work in progress and will keep being improved as time goes by, so look forward to more Dungeon Maker features in the future!

Solasta's storytelling may not be up to much, but its tactical combat and accessible approach to D&D rules make it worth considering for CRPG fans.

Solasta: Crown of the Magister takes the mantle of the “most” Dungeons & Dragons video game out there, if not quite the best. Though the game has a modular adventure setup that strongly suggests there will be more stories, this one falls too flat for its 40- to 50-hour length. However, the combat system is merely a few tweaks short of perfection, so I’d still be interested in sending my heroes on another adventure in the realm of Solasta.

Solasta: Crown of the Magister is an authentic D&D experience, with great tactical combat and plenty of deep systems to chow down on.

Solasta: A Crown Jewel
I picked this one up in Early Access and was blown away. My official YouTube review was a "hell yes, go buy this game," and I'm reiterating that statement here. Absolutely pick this game up and support Tactical with their first product. It's a bit rough around the edges in some areas, but in my mind that only adds to the charm of this being a lot like an actual tabletop game, with some cheesy dialogue from your friends as you deal with bad rolls and surprising situations. The combat on normal mode was quite challenging, and I had to re-do several of the fights, with easy mode = walk in the park. I haven't tried anything beyond that point yet, but the normal mode was good enough for me for my first run, which got me right around 30 hours of gameplay doing all the side quests I came across (not sure if I missed any). All in all, a solid first outing from a fledgling studio, and I hope to see more from them in the future!

All i can say is AC rules in the lower levels. Do whatever you can to get it as high as possible, even if it just one more point. Then Cast Bane at level 2 and 4 baddies cant hurt you unless they roll a nat 20

Less then i had goped for
For me this was the most frustrating implementation of the D&D system. Too many times i got 6-7 misses in a row and the enemy got 4-5 crits in a row. Maybe i was just in my head but i could swear there was something wrong with that dice. The loot unfortunately is very boring. You will not find many unique items in your playthrough. And because i did not feel like playing a wizard and so did not have an Arcana proficient character, i could not craft my own items, so 80% of the ingredients i gathered were useless. The voice acting is not AAA, nor is the graphics, expecially the beards which i fould a bit weird looking, nor is the story. But to be fair, it does not cost as much as a AAA. Overall it was a decent effort, i wish the devs great success in the future. They have a solid base to build and improve upon. One playthrough is enouth for me.
