Our take on Telepath Tactics
The defining detail is battlefield alteration: walls can be demolished, bridges constructed, water frozen, and enemies pushed into hazards such as lava or traps.
What is Telepath Tactics?
Telepath Tactics is a story-driven strategy RPG set in a steampunk fantasy world.
Battles let players reshape terrain by destroying walls, freezing water, constructing bridges, placing explosives, and using traps, water, lava, or cliffs against enemies. Armies can draw from 23 classes, with more than 110 attacks to learn and prestige classes available for promotions. Between battles, merchants supply the army while campaign decisions set priorities. The game includes dozens of unique characters and follows sisters Emma and Sabrina Strider. Multiplayer supports 2–6 players in hotseat matches, with randomized item drops, multiple modes, and alliances. A map editor supports custom campaigns, and other players’ creations can be downloaded.
