Heed the call, Adventurers, Blightstone is Available NOW in Early access

All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

It’s time to join the fight, Adventurers. Blightstone is out NOW, and we’re calling on all of you to join our heroes, destroy the Blightstone and save the world.

Journey into a dark-fantasy turn-based strategy, with unique heroes, roguelike progression, devastating abilities and a varied cast of enemies both of this world and of the next! 

Form a Fellowship

Discover unique adventurers, each with their own skills. Take on the enemy with the might of the Brawler. Strategise and attack from a distance with the Hunter. MAster the mystical arts with the Arcanist, and use the forces of nature as the Druid.

Each hero comes with their own abilities, but the party is at its most powerful when you think strategically and use them together. Block pathways with the Hunter’s traps or the Druid’s tangled vines. Force enemies together with the Arcanist’s telekinesis and pool-shot them with the Brawler’s charge.

Your party must come together if we are to stand any chance of destroying the Blightstone.

Break the Mould

Each hero and enemy has complete freedom on the battlefield. Our adventure uses gridless strategy which allows our party to think tactically to take the fight to the forces of evil.

Take or break cover, round corners and push enemies together - a gridless system means freedom to make your own decisions, in battles where your placement is important.

Embrace the Environment

It’s not just enemies you’ll have to contend with. Varying weather effects mean your strategies will have to flex as you navigate the path to the rift. 

It’s not all sunshine, Adventurers. You’ll encounter fog, rain, high winds and other effects which will have an impact on how you perform on the battlefield. From obscured enemy information to enhanced electric effects and even impact on your heroes accuracy - paying attention to the weather is as important as choosing the right skills as part of your strategy.

Roguelike Exploration

Every good fantasy needs a little magic, right? When your heroes finally fall (and they WILL fall), Xander will bring you back for another run at the Rift. Use Threads of Fate to upgrade your party, skills and abilities and unlock further meta progression to make sure you can fight back harder, faster and stronger next time.

Adventurers, we need you!

Our journey begins in Early Access, which means that our Adventurers are more important to us than ever before! Our adventure is based on your experience, and being part of our journey means having an impact on how our story unfolds. Find us on X (Twitter), Bluesky and Tik Tok to join the conversation, meet fellow Adventurers, and discover new powers and strategies.
