Play Wardrum today in our Steam Next Fest Demo

The Wardrums are calling you, ready your sword, draw your bow, unsheathe your daggers – the Wardrum Steam Next Fest Demo is ready for you to try right now on Steam. ~

In Wardrum you plan and execute your tactics in time with the primal pounding of a tribal wardrum for maximum impact. Off-beat magic has infected the lands, neighbouring settlements have fallen, and it’s up to you and a band of five warriors to keep the beat, venture out into a harsh fantasy world filled with rhythm magic and stop the source of this off-beat threat once and for all

In our brand-new demo, you will experience the game's opening and the entire first biome, where you can put your tactical and rhythmic skills to the test!

Trek across the Shioso Plains with your Wardrummer, Barbarian, Bowman and Warrior, face down foes in intense turn-based tactical battles, discover and equip rare trinkets, forge battle-changing Rhythm Chains and hunt down the biome’s fearsome boss, or die trying!

Death isn’t the end. In Wardrum, our Tactical Roguelite, each painful loss makes you stronger as you enhance your tactics, upgrade your warriors, become one with the rhythm and attempt another run across the Shioso Plains to glory.

See if you have what it takes to guide your warband of heroes in our demo and let us know what you think of our tactical turn-based roguelite!
