The Last Spell

You defend humanity's last city: at night you fight monster hordes in turn-based tactical combat, by day you fortify defenses and gear up your heroes. The roguelite structure makes every run a fresh set of build and positioning decisions.

A first-person dungeon crawler with turn-based combat where you build a party of up to six custom heroes by choosing race, class and age. Its appeal lies in deep character building and demanding battles against powerful monsters.

A turn-based tactical RPG on hex grids set in The Dark Eye universe, where you lead a band of misfits and criminals. Battles are demanding and the deep character system allows lots of freedom in building your party.
