The mad emperor Ayziz, ruler of the Indiekingdom, uses his dark powers to teleport the fiercest warriors from different timelines and places around the multiverse. These warriors are manipulated to believe that, if they prove their worth fighting to death for the amusement of the emperor, they will find their way back to their homeland. You were a great chieftain in your land, a virtuous warrior who ruled with honor and justice. Then one day a dark portal appeared in the sky and sucked you. You reappeared near butt-naked, alone and, above all, incredibly pissed at Ayziz. You swore vengeance, and even though you will probably die trying, your bloodline will keep your oath: rise to glory, be free again – and wash this disgusting loincloth as soon as you can!
Gavra Games, an independent development studio based in Israel, is happy to announce that their debut game, Warriors: Rise to Glory!, will be released tomorrow on Steam Early Access on February 2nd for $9.99 / €9.99 / £7.99. Warriors: Rise to Glory is a turn-based combat game with RPG and roguelike elements – and lots of silly humor! You play as a fierce warrior, summoned to the strange realm of Indiekingdom for the amusement of a crazy tyrant, the mad emperor Ayziz. You must rise above all other fighters to win your freedom back, become the best warrior in the realm, and get your revenge against the emperor!
In order to do that, you fight in turn-based combats in duels and tournaments; you gain experience, level up your warrior to gain new skills, and loot and buy cool, crazy weapons and armors. But you are not an ordinary warrior, but a gladiator fighting for the amusement of the crowd: how you fight and what you do to please them will be of vital importance. Warriors: Rise to Glory adds RPG and roguelike elements to the mixture. Permadeath makes every combat meaningful: if you are defeated, you are dead for good, although your bloodline can inherit some of your skills and riches. And along the way you will find quests, people in need and decisions to take…
