The upcoming turn-based tactical RPG pits player-selected survivors against hordes of giant mutated rats in a struggle to traverse the ruins of a crumbling city and survive another day. increase. Shardpunk: Verminfall releases on April 13, 2023, and sounds like an interesting blend of turn-based tactics, RPG, resource management, and survival genres.
At its core, Shardpunk seems to be a fast-moving tactical battle that spends a day scavenging the ruins of a steampunk-like capital city where you must constantly move to outrun hordes of looming vermin. At night, your team takes refuge somewhere and you make choices about managing their health, morale, gear, and stats.
“In Shardpunk: Verminfall, you have already lost. Now you must run for your life while saving as many men and equipment as possible. We reach a safe place operated by a fusion core: a bunker,” says the developer.
Slawomir Bryk, solo developer of Shardpunk, said, “I’m excited to finally announce to everyone that the game is ready to release on April 13th, 2023.” We put a lot of time, effort and passion into it, and we can’t wait for players to experience the dark and gritty world of Shardpunk: Verminfall.”
The world looks pretty interesting, honestly. To build your team, act alongside a “motley crew of characters” each with their own equipment, abilities, and quirks. Feeding them and keeping them healthy is also a concern. For example, an example of a given decision is who receives the final ration. Another concern is keeping your gear in combat condition, as steampunk weapons and robotic companions require constant maintenance. Sounds like a great game setup.
