Our take on Mind of War
The defining structure is a turn-based battle system where victory depends on selecting a unit lineup and abilities, then directing movement during the fight.
What is Mind of War?
Mind of War presents tactical battles in a fantasy setting, with turns determining when players select troops, assign abilities, and position them during fights.
As campaigns advance, troops develop new powers and stronger battlefield performance, while additional forces and encounters are opened. Several factions provide distinct approaches and lineups that include foot soldiers, champions, enormous beasts, mechanical weapons, and supernatural beings. Multiplayer supports games with friends through Steam Remote Play, although a session requires one participant to have the complete edition. Long-term progression involves gathering every available troop and raising each one to its highest level.
