Grim Tides – Old School RPG: A Solo Adventure with Classic Turn-Based Combat
Grim Tides is a game that tries to blend tabletop RPG adventure vibes, familiar dungeon crawling and roguelike mechanics, and a classic turn-based combat system into an accessible and entertaining package. The game takes place in Farhaven, a lone port in an exotic tropical archipelago of the Southern Isles that is a den of crime, decadence, and debauchery. You take control of a nameless prisoner who’s been offered a chance at redemption in this strange new frontier.
In Grim Tides, you can immerse yourself in a rich fantasy world with its own history and lore, defeat enemies and fight boss battles in a classic turn-based combat system, and customize your character in a classless system with many skills, spells, and perks at your disposal. You can select one of seven character backgrounds that each affect gameplay in their way and experience the game world through a large variety of interactive, text-based events. You can even manage your own ship and crew as you explore an exotic tropical archipelago, acquire weapons, armor, accessories, consumable items, crafting ingredients, and more. Grim Tides offers four difficulty levels, optional permadeath, and other adjustable settings that can add suspense to your solo adventure.
