Explore a Dark Fantasy World in Blightstone
The indie game developer Unfinished Pixel has announced that its upcoming title, Blightstone will launch on Steam Early Access in 2025. It is a dark fantasy tactical roguelike RPG that offers a fresh take on combat with flexible character placement, interactive environments, and challenging resource management. So, get ready to explore a grim and dangerous world where every decision matters.
Blightstone takes place in a world shrouded in darkness. A magical rift has unleashed demons and corruption, spreading chaos and destruction across the land. As people flee, few safe places remain. But hope emerges in the form of a rare turquoise mineral, believed to halt the blight. Now, a group of heroes rises, determined to gather this precious resource, harness its power, and push back the growing corruption before it consumes everything.
Players will face dynamic turn-based battles without a traditional grid, relying on smart positioning and environmental strategy. Success depends on using the surroundings to outmaneuver relentless enemies and combat the spreading dark corruption. As the plague consumes the shattered world, managing resources and gear becomes vital for survival. Few will triumph, but failure has a purpose. Earthglass shards collected from defeats will empower the guiding Crystal, bolstering future adventurers and giving them a stronger shot at victory and freedom.
