Beast

Beast is a turn-based tactical RPG set in a grim world inspired by Carpathian legends. You command a squad in gridless battles, fighting enemies with ranged weapons and brutal melee attacks while facing difficult moral choices shaped by your inner Beast.

Story

A veteran returns to his Carpathian homeland after being presumed dead during 10 years of Ottoman slavery. The land is in ruins, ravaged by raiders and a hellish plague, and ruled feebly by a demented prophet-king. The people and places he loved have either disappeared or changed beyond recognition. With only his soldiers’ loyalty and a holy quest to end the plague, he must confront hordes of enemies and his inner demons, whatever the cost.

Command your warband

Your warband consists of loyal comrades with different skills and abilities. You can fight alongside them or consume them to enhance your Beast abilities. In combat, you direct the squad through fast-paced, gridless, turn-based battles, using ranged weapons and close-quarters attacks to overcome intense encounters.

The Beast and its choices

The Insanity system puts moral decisions into the middle of combat. You choose whether to exercise or exorcize your inner Beast, with those choices affecting your Beast abilities. The setting draws on Carpathian legends and presents a dark world where evil comes in greater or lesser forms.
