Chosen War

Chosen War is a strategic roguelike in which you assemble a troop list and lead an army across islands as the Divine Chosen One. You deploy troops in battles, use your own skills and simple army commands to defeat enemies, and earn rewards as you progress. Your goal is to reach the final island and defeat the evil High Priest.

Explore the islands

The islands are shrouded in mist, and you can see the conditions around only those you have visited. At route forks, you choose which island to visit, including when searching for the Mad Priest, and must consider whether you have enough rations to recover from a wrong turn. Items, your wits or courage can help you turn a difficult situation around.

You can travel between islands by boat or teleport between sugar-triangle islands crackling with lightning. Teleporting lets you cover long distances without using rations. Each adventure has randomly generated enemies, routes and rewards, so you make choices as you explore toward the final island.

Improve your army

After a fierce battle on a mysterious island, the God of Spaghetti offers a choice of one of three troop enhancements. A third enhancement for the same troop type brings about a qualitative change. You can refresh the offered enhancements at the cost of gold coins.

On some islands, enemies hold warriors of various races prisoner. Defeat their captors, break open the prison and bring the rescued warriors into your army. Fallen warriors become heroic spirits; resurrection altars on some islands let you revive them for gold coins, though the newly resurrected warriors are weak. Even without paying, your surviving army receives the altar's healing effect.

Trade and treasure

A merchant lives permanently on the shop island, selling magic items and troops for gold coins. You can also pay coins to master powerful skills immediately.

Some islands hold treasures hidden by the God of Spaghetti, guarded by stronger enemy troops. Defeat the guards to claim the treasure.
