If you're on the hunt for a new deckbuilder to dive into, you're in for a treat. The critically acclaimed RPG, Gordian Quest, is gearing up for its mobile debut, and it's arriving sooner than you might think. Mark your calendars for March 27th, as this is when you can jump into the action on both iOS and Android. Let's delve into what developer Mixed Realms has crafted for us.
In Gordian Quest, you'll embark on an epic four-act campaign that spans the cursed fantasy world of Wrendia, from Westmire to the Sky Imperium. You'll have the chance to assemble a team of heroes from ten unique classes, including Swordhand, Druid, and Golemancer. As you might expect from the genre, there's a vast array of nearly 800 skills and passives to explore, which can significantly impact your playstyle. Add to that a plethora of items and loot for gearing up your heroes, and a variety of randomized maps, dungeons, and skill combinations to discover, and you've got a recipe for endless fun.
But wait, there's more! Gordian Quest doesn't stop at its campaign. It also features two additional modes to keep you engaged. Realm Mode offers an endlessly replayable roguelite experience with ever-changing threats and rewards. On the other hand, Adventure Mode provides even more content for those who master the game, allowing you to tackle solo challenges or explore additional procedurally-generated areas.
It's evident where Gordian Quest draws its inspiration from, blending deckbuilding with the classic D20 roll so beloved in CRPGs. Yet, this isn't a criticism but rather a testament to the game's potential to deliver a fantastic experience for fans of the genre.
