Tales & Tactics blends the roguelike strategy genre with the squad-based autobattler genre, creating a one-of-a-kind experience tailor made for a single player adventure. No time limits and no pressure means you have all the time in the world to take in the game's mechanics and characters, and to strategize correctly for the fight ahead of you.

Hello Tacticians,

The time has come! - The all new Tales & Tactics demo is now live ahead of it's launch on August 10th! If you played our most recent demo and were itching to play more we have you covered as the new demo features the unlock and meta progression mechanics! You will now be able to spend your mastery points to help you progress, provide more variety and even cosmetics! Not every unlock is available in this demo compared to what will be in the Early Access launch, but we wanted to give a bigger preview and ask for your help testing out our progression, unlocks, game modifier, and cosmetics systems.
