Bad North Update v2.00
Date : 01-2021 Languages: 10 Subs
Platform : PS4 FW 5.50 Genre : Puzzle
Release Info:
Bad North is a charming but brutal real-time tactics roguelite. Defend your
idyllic island kingdom against a horde of Viking invaders, as you lead the
desperate exodus of your people. Command your loyal subjects to take full
tactical advantage of the unique shape of each island. Everything is at
stake: fail, and watch the blood of your subjects stain the ground red.
It's charmingly brutal, with beautiful procedurally-generated islands and
adorable soldiers juxtaposed against the blood-stained realities of war.
You control the broad strokes of the battle, giving high level commands to
your soldiers who try their best to carry them out in the heat of the
moment. It's accessibly deep, with simple player inputs masking a dynamic
combat simulation that make it inviting to new players while challenging
veterans.
Keep fighting, warriors. Not for power or riches or glory, but for hope of
peace to come once again in the harsh lands of the Bad North.
