About:
You drag yourself from the black tides, across the corpses of drowned men, and onto the
unwelcoming, craggy shoreline. Gulls cry overhead and the stink of seaweed fills your nose.
By some miracle you have made it to Idra. It will take all your skill to survive and unravel
the eldritch mysteries of the Black Priory
SKALD: Against the Black Priory is inspired by roleplaying games of yesteryear,
combining modern design and compelling storytelling with authentic 8-bit looks and charms.
Delve into a dark fantasy world, full of deadly creatures, tragic heroes, and lovecraftian horror
for an epic retro-style adventure rich in exploration and tactical, turn-based combat.
Do you have what it takes to lead a company of broken heroes from the tainted shores of Idra
to the gates of the Black Priory - and beyond?
Gather your party
Lead a band of broken heroes through challenging turn-based combat scenarios as you cleave,
blast or stealth your way through deadly enemies of all definitions. Equip your heroes using a
modern inventory system, fulfil objectives through quest logs, read journals to discover hidden
secrets. And if the action is still a bit too hot to handle, auto-resolve to bypass conflict entirely.
Prepare thyself
Set yourself up for the journey ahead by crafting and cooking from a slew of distinct recipes
Choose your character, select their stats and build out a party from a series of diverse allies,
each with their own skill-set, agenda and personality. Decide between a dozen classes and
varied backgrounds, levelling up to 20 while customising your spells and equipment to suit your style.
Venture Forth
Set in an unforgiving world with lovecraftian horrors and choice-based dialogue, your story
will take many unexpected twists and turns. Living life as a mercenary, you’ll need to roll
the dice to determine whether you fall prey to certain peril or escape grave danger.
Celebrate Yesteryear
Uncover the grand schemes of the Gallian Empire and explore the vast expanse of Freymark
and the Outer Isles. In SKALD: Against the Black Priory, you’ll experience this richly illustrated
world of authentic pixel art, built from thousands of hand-drawn tiles and images using a
palette inspired by the legendary Commodore 64 computer. Optional CRT filter for true
retro aficionados also included.
