Timbertales

Timbertales is a fantasy, turn-based strategy game set in a world where forest animals and insects battle for supremacy. You explore forests and fight tactical battles with an army you plan and prepare before each match. Rather than producing new units during battle, you use the characters in your army, each with distinct abilities and playstyles.

Factions and heroes

The game has two main factions: Vermin and Sylvans. Each has a range of unique heroes with different abilities and roles, including ranged damage, melee damage, support and healing. In battle, you can choose standard attacks or use special abilities such as healing, curses and offensive skills.

Sylvan campaign

The story mode introduces the Sylvans through a brief tutorial, a prologue and their campaign, which consists of several missions. Missions have varied objectives and challenges, and completing them can unlock special achievements.

Challenge mode

In Challenge mode, you draft an army from limited options and face an AI that becomes progressively more difficult. Each victory raises the challenge level and increases your rewards. The mode also has special maps with optional objectives; completing these can trigger events that provide strategic advantages in battle. A special challenge ranking tracks progress.

Spheres

Defeated units have a chance to drop spheres with different effects:

• Healing Spheres: restore health to your units.
• Critical Strike Spheres: increase critical strike chance for several rounds.
• Acorn Point Spheres: boost your acorn points, the in-game currency used to unlock features.
