Wargroove

Wargroove is a turn-based combat game in which you command an army, customize battlefields and challenge friends. When war breaks out in the Kingdom of Cherrystone, young Queen Mercia flees her home. Pursued by her foes, she travels to new lands to seek allies and save her kingdom, facing sinister challenges along the way.

The campaign and factions

The campaign follows Mercia’s quest against unworldly forces through animated pixel art cut-scenes and dynamic battles. You can command one of four warring factions: the Cherrystone Kingdom, Heavensong Empire, Felheim Legion and Floran Tribes. The game has a cast of more than 12 characters, each with distinct personalities and motivations.

Commanders and Grooves

Commanders each have a unique special move called a Groove. Once a Commander’s Groove meter is filled to 100%, you can activate the move; each one affects the battlefield differently.

Modes and multiplayer

Arcade mode has you fight five different opponents in quick succession, with bouts that reveal more about the characters you encounter. In Puzzle mode, you take on strategic challenges where you must win in one turn. You can also earn stars to unlock special content and discover hidden features.

Local and online multiplayer skirmishes support competitive and co-op play, with customizable rules. The game also includes online Quick Play maps and public and private multiplayer lobbies.

Create maps and campaigns

In-game editors let you make custom maps, cut-scenes and campaigns, then share them online or download creations from other players. Editing tools support story-driven missions with sub-quests, plot twists, ambushes and hidden secrets, as well as changes to game rules without mods or external tools. Custom maps can also be played online.

Double Trouble expansion

Wargroove: Double Trouble adds a story campaign designed for co-op, playable locally, online or solo. It introduces the Outlaw faction and three Commanders: Wulfar, and the troublemaking twins Errol and Orla, along with Vesper. The expansion also adds two units, Thieves and Riflemen, new Arcade missions, a Volcano map theme, Outlaw music tracks composed by Phonetic Hero, and further updates to the custom editor tools.
