A sinister curse corrupts the land. Darkness reigns. Monsters roam. Scoundrels loot. Cowards flee. Heroes emerge.

Lead heroes on an adventure to save what’s left of this fallen world and destroy the root of evil abound. Will you fall at the claws of your enemies or the consequences of your poor decisions? Your Gordian Quest is about to begin.

Gordian Quest is an epic deckbuilding RPG inspired by old-school classics like Ultima and D&D, using modern gaming concepts like roguelite elements and turn-based strategic combat. You will form parties of heroes whom you will have to lead and manage on grueling missions. Help them forge bonds and discover new skills among them. Be fearless and unwavering as you work to unravel the curses laid upon the lands and defeat the ultimate evil at the heart of it all.

Features:

*Campaign Mode - Venture through 4 Acts, taking you from the troubled lands of Westmire to the enigmatic Sky Imperium, in an epic journey to save the land of Wrendia.

*Realm Mode - A frenetic and fast-paced roguelite mode. Challenge an ever-changing version of the game with unpredictable threats and rewards. Complete 5 realms, or take on an endless challenge to see how far you can go.

*Adventure Mode - An end-game mode where you can explore procedurally generated areas or take on solo challenges.

*Ten heroes - Each with their own unique class, skills, and playstyle to form a party of three and bring to adventure. Play as the Swordhand, Cleric, Ranger, Scoundrel, Spellbinder, Druid, Bard, Warlock, Golemancer, or the Monk. Each Hero has 3 further Class Specialisations each!

Ratings and reviews

Much as I want to love playing this - and it has reinvigorated my interest in the game after logging many hours on Steam - the implementation is buggy and fussy. Text size being too small and tooltips being hard to manage are one thing; early version stumbling blocks iteration will tweak. Ida's Head Pummel consistently being unplayable, by comparison, is run-breaking.

Doesn't Start The app opens to a black screen. Google sign in fails and the message states that the game has not passed verification. Then the app sits on a black screen. A loading prompt shows for a second, but then nothing. I'm giving a 1 star that is not reflective of the game itself but the fact that there is a bug. I tried on my Chromebook and had the same issue

Gameplay is cool but UI needs work for phones. Your going to mistouch often unfortunately to the point you may not know if what your trying to do is not allowed or you just missed the tiny hitbox of the UI. If that gets polished it's probably a 5 star deckbuilder. Also some fonts on my pixel are too small to read when you're looking at certain cards during certain events.
