Our take on Hive Blight

Players who prefer direct moment-to-moment combat may bounce off at the autobattler format, where team composition and placement replace manual attacks. Those who dislike repeated run-based decisions may hit a wall when each attempt requires choosing clans, units, equipment, and discoveries.

What is Hive Blight?

In this roguelite autobattler, insect fighters oppose the Fungomancer and a kingdom-wide fungal infection.

A run opens with a selection between two clans, shaping the units, gear, trinkets, and ability combinations available. Vespadas specialize in attacking and weakening foes; Silent Cabbale combine toxins with surprise attacks; Sweet Symphoney emphasize restoration and charm. Over 40 characters bring individual abilities and statistics. Units gain strength through found or purchased equipment, sacred altars, potions, and the forge. More than 60 pieces of gear and trinkets allow varied party setups. Position troops carefully, blend clan powers, overcome formidable enemies, and advance toward the origin of the spreading blight.
