Our take on Storybook of Tactics
Instead of centering direct combat commands, this strategy game makes army construction and placement the main decisions while battles run automatically. Random maps, leader powers, and risk-based events replace a fixed sequence of encounters, giving each run a different tactical setup.
What is Storybook of Tactics?
Storybook of Tactics combines rogue-lite progression, deck building, and automated battles.
Commanders assemble and position units, improve unit cards, equip items, collect special powers, and face successive enemy waves and bosses. Maps are randomly generated across multiple locations, with leaders offering distinct powers and events that introduce risk-and-reward choices. Battles can support different approaches based on the map rules, enemy types, and selected tactics. A lost battle does not require a full restart, while optional map modifiers add harder conditions for players pursuing flawless victories. The game uses colorful 2D visuals across its interface, animations, locations, bosses, enemies, and skills.
