SKALD: Against the Black Priory
Opis
Digital Deluxe Edition
You drag yourself from the black tides, across the corpses of drowned men, and onto the unwelcoming, craggy shoreline. Gulls cry overhead and the stink of seaweed fills your nose. By some miracle you have made it to Idra. It will take all your skill to survive and unravel the eldritch mysteries of the Black Priory
SKALD: Against the Black Priory is inspired by roleplaying games of yesteryear, combining modern design and compelling storytelling with authentic 8-bit looks and charms.
Delve into a dark fantasy world, full of deadly creatures, tragic heroes, and lovecraftian horror for an epic retro-style adventure rich in exploration and tactical, turn-based combat.

Lead a band of broken heroes through challenging turn-based combat scenarios as you cleave, blast or stealth your way through deadly enemies of all definitions. Equip your heroes using a modern inventory system, fulfil objectives through quest logs, read journals to discover hidden secrets. And if the action is still a bit too hot to handle, auto-resolve to bypass conflict entirely.Prepare thyself
Set yourself up for the journey ahead by crafting and cooking from a slew of distinct recipes Choose your character, select their stats and build out a party from a series of diverse allies, each with their own skill-set, agenda and personality.

Bask in the heady nostalgia of an '80s retro RPG with strong systems and a dark, mature narrative.

3.5/5 stars
Yet even these rough edges work in concert toward something singular and idiosyncratic. Indeed, the story becomes hard to pin down in the lead-up to a truly audacious ending, and the occasional abandonment of combat fortifies the horror undertones far more effectively than simply killing everything in your way. Skald may be easy to distill to its overt influences, but its best moments use those touchstones to build something new.

Great game that I didn't know I wanted.
I wasn't around to play the games this is inspired by, but it has enough character, well written story and interesting combat for that to not matter. Heartily recommended.

Slick 90's era CRPG.
I really enjoyed this one, and this is coming from someone that is quite jaded with gaming overall now. The game itself is a slick, perfectly implemented CRPG along the lines of something from the early 90's, cooked to perfection, without anything unnecessary. The game system was very easy to learn and use, with something to work towards as the time flew by. The story was engrossing, the music enthralling, the battles fun, and I enjoyed myself for the entirety of the play through. I could say I wanted a larger world to explore, more meat on the bone, etc etc...but I would be just wishful thinking. The experience left me satisfied and wanting another "episode". If you have more stories of the same strength, using this great little engine, with the wonderful tunes....don't change a thing. Get those stories out there to be played. Thank you from a jaded CRPGamer.

reenaction laquers up
Light graphics of a considerational tone are what describes this - a hark back to old days on basicker computer system of the 80's best of a genre 2d rpg. The game takes you to isles in the dark seas of idra, the first encountered isle. The program makes the best of where you are taken on your journey, to find a woman and solve the mystery of what has happened here. Out from your home city you make headway with the persons you speak to as you go to the tightly wound storylines certain path. The content much appreciating your work, with grateful progression you can aide well these endangered people though maybe not to the end. A wild story with straight lined visuals and unpressing advances in you tale it makes for a grander take on bitwide graphics then the capacities available in their conversion. I would say they did well here but don't see it pleasing the grander schematics of later re envisions of the genre lest change spikes and then to now passion is lesser.
