Description


The Thaumaturge is an isometric, story-rich RPG with a unique take on turn-based combat, character development features, and investigation mechanics, facing you with morally ambiguous choices – set in a world teeming with mysterious powers and strange ethereal beings called salutors.



The year is 1905. Warsaw lives under the yoke of imperial Russian tsardom. Its inhabitants constitute a diverse group of different ancestries, views, and beliefs with often conflicting interests: Russian soldiers, Jewish merchants, Polish townspeople, and more. Despite the circumstances, the city is a buzzing metropolis, where one can attend a breathtaking party with the high society, and later get robbed in one of the dark alleys of the Praga district. A city of great hopes and dreams on one hand and dark desires on the other.



A thaumaturge bears both a gift and a burden at the same time. This parallel holds true for Wiktor Szulski, the game’s titular protagonist, who is drawn back to the tumultuous streets of 20th-century Warsaw by family matters. The gift of thaumaturgy is intertwined with family legacy, passed down through one's ancestors. This mystical inheritance significantly shapes Wiktor’s life journey tied around a pursuit of unearthly entities and their hosts. As only a thaumaturge can tame these ethereal entities - known to a select few as salutors - utilizing their mystical abilities to discover secrets hidden within the human soul and speak to the Darkness, no one understands quite like Wiktor how everyone suffers their own demons.



Features:
  • Shape your story – as a full-fledged RPG, it allows you to alternate your choices and make you deal with the aftermath. 
  • Develop your character – creating your own version of the thaumaturge will allow you to approach situations in different ways. 
  • Experience unique turn-based combat and defeat your foes using human attacks and skills as well as psychic strikes delivered by salutors.
  • Influence and manipulate the temperaments of other characters to bend their will to your liking. 
  • Tame the power of salutors – use the unique set of their skills to gain an advantage while exploring the world and when bringing your adversaries to their knees. 
  • See the world that’s inevitably gone – explore the uncommon, heavily researched historic period of the early XX century Warsaw, where crime and luxury are often two sides of the same coin. Meet historical figures and learn about their involvement in the story. 
  • Created in Unreal Engine 5 to deliver a detailed & beautifully crafted world.

Very good game

The game has a good gameplay and history. Some of the voice acting is not realy good, but they tend not to be long.

The Thaumaturge

Great game, although at times it can get a bit stale when your running from place to place looking for clues or collectibles. The combat is turn based and satisfying, even if its straight forward and simplified if your an RPG veteran. Voice acting is solid enough, didnt see a problem with the animations either. The lore and atmosphere is where this game really shines though, I loved learning about the different Salutors (Demons or Spirits) you can obtain through the story. Really the only thing that held me back was exploration, as i stated it gets tedious running around searching for thigs to examine and read which is a huge chore if your like me and have to try and hunt down every side quest and do it. The game is great though and is well worth a play through or more. Highly recomend it.

cool story

To beginn with I really liked the game and played it complety through, except for some minor stuff i just missed. To summarize the experience I would definetly recommend it and will maybe play it again at some point. The negatives I have are minor stuff to me. What I liked: + world design: you walk through small instances / maps freely and can hop between them + In-game time: as you do things in the world the days go by. Certain things can just be done or found at specific daytimes + story: the early 20th century fantasy-version of poland was fresh for me. I really liked how the story was told and that there are some messages "hidden". That said, its not the most intense and thrilling story, but enjoyable for the estimated time What I disliked: - the game didn't run very smooth, neither on windows nor on linux. But except for 2 or 3 crashes and some frame stuttering here and there everythings fine - the leveling / upgrade system: because this is tied to the story and your decisions you will propably not get the most optimal build paying blind. For me it was fine because of the game design and it doesnt really matter in combat.

Good idea, bad execution

I like the premise and story that this game has, but the game is just incredibly boring and repetitive. Combat is not fun, the game consists of walking around areas over and over again scanning for "clues." It gets old after a few hours.
