If you're on the hunt for a fresh deckbuilder to dive into, you're in for a treat. The critically acclaimed RPG, Gordian Quest, is making its much-anticipated arrival on mobile devices. Mark your calendars, as this gem will be available for both iOS and Android starting March 27th! Let's delve into what developer Mixed Realms has prepared for us with this exciting release.
In Gordian Quest, you'll embark on an epic four-act campaign that spans the cursed fantasy realm of Wrendia, from the lush landscapes of Westmire to the lofty heights of the Sky Imperium. Assemble your party from a selection of ten unique classes, including the versatile Swordhand, the nature-wielding Druid, or the mystical Golemancer.
As expected from the genre, the game boasts an extensive array of skills—nearly 800 to be exact—alongside passives that can significantly tweak your playstyle. Add to that a rich assortment of items and loot for outfitting your heroes, plus a variety of randomized maps, dungeons, and skill combinations to explore, ensuring that no two playthroughs are ever the same.
But wait, there's more! Gordian Quest doesn't stop at the campaign. It also includes two additional modes to keep you hooked. Realm Mode offers an endlessly replayable roguelite challenge with dynamic threats and rewards. For those who conquer the main game, Adventure Mode opens up solo challenges and further procedurally-generated areas to explore.
It's evident where Gordian Quest draws its inspiration, blending deckbuilding with the classic D20 roll system beloved by CRPG enthusiasts. This combination promises a thrilling experience for fans of the genre, without merely rehashing familiar elements.
