From Press Release:
Unlike most roguelikes that rely purely on RNG, The Fortress features a dice-driven combat system that is directly tied to the game’s nine distinct classes, giving players more immediate control over how they choose to play. Although there’s still plenty of opportunity for build optimisation and synergies galore!
Playing as a nameless prisoner tasked with overthrowing the corrupted Lich King, The Fortress blends its dungeon-crawling roots with roguelike replayability, offering plenty of ways to dice and slice your way to glorious victory at The Citadel.
The Fortress looks to fill a gap in the market by merging the popular concepts of dice-based mechanics and roguelikes, making it an ideal choice for players seeking a combination of these two genres, and a strong fit for any of your existing content focusing on dice-based or roguelike games.
Features:
Navigate gothic environments as a prisoner ascending to face the Lich King.
A Class-specific dice pool system (across 9 classes) offers more player agency
70+ relics, items, and shields provide lots of opportunity for synergised builds
Gritty visuals inspired by first-person dungeon crawling classics
