Buy Beasts of Fortune PC key

Beasts of Fortune is an open-world game about leading a mercenary band. You explore, fight and trade as the world grows more dangerous over time. Your skills improve through use, while completing goals and defeating bosses earns score that you need to gain perks.

Lead your band

Combat is an auto-battler: you do not directly control fighters, but shape battles through team composition and modifiers. Fighter types are procedurally generated, so the same composition cannot be repeated every playthrough. Fighters also grow stronger as your player skills improve, though not all fighters benefit equally.

You can develop your band in different ways: travel quickly to take courier contracts and trade while outrunning stronger enemies; focus on stealth and use dense terrain to target weaker enemies and avoid stronger ones; or build skills through combat, retreating when vulnerable. Perks can specialize your band for particular terrain or against an outlaw gang. You can also collect memories, which some perks scale with, pursue varied goals for score, or focus on one goal type. Anti-boss perks can help you start clearing bosses earlier.

Explore and trade

The world has terrain properties and weather events. Towns differ in what they buy and sell, while the quality of their offers is random and affected by your skills. You can take generated contracts and find random activities in town. There are almost 200 perks, and goals are always optional and never prescribe a playstyle. Most goals impose handicaps that remain in effect until you complete them.

Playthroughs and defeat

A playthrough ends when you are defeated while vulnerable or when the retirement deadline arrives. Reaching retirement counts as a victory, though you can still beat your personal-best score without reaching it. Permadeath is lenient: you can lose a battle, but not twice in quick succession.
