Our take on The Thaumaturge
Players who expect real-time fighting will likely bounce when combat begins: encounters are turn-based and depend on combining Wiktor’s physical attacks with salutor abilities. Those looking for a straightforward hero may also hit a wall when his pride creates setbacks and choices carry morally ambiguous consequences.
What is The Thaumaturge?
Play as Wiktor Szulski, a thaumaturge whose mystical abilities reveal emotions, motives, and secrets.
Explore early 20th-century Warsaw, examining objects for personal clues that can change how events appear. Choices shape the story’s outcome, while Wiktor’s pride can open opportunities or bring negative consequences. Use salutors, folklore-inspired demons, to influence characters and assist with exploration and combat. Battles use turn-based tactics, combining physical attacks with the salutors’ abilities against different kinds of opponents. The story includes historical figures and characters tied to Wiktor’s past, including his sister Ligia and childhood friend Abaurcy.
