Microids and Savage Level have announced their newest tactical RPG title, Flint: Treasure of Oblivion, which is set to be released by October of this year.
For those interested in pirate-themed titles, such as World of Warcraft, Flint: Treasure of Oblivion might be one of the best ones for you, given that the game shows the journey of Captain Flint, his first mate Billy Bones, and his crew of sea wolves, in the hunt of a legendary treasure. Interestingly, the title has its roots in a comic book; hence, the game itself is historically documented, which means that every piece of in-game event is expected to be well-executed.
Flint: Treasure of Oblivion promises not only adventure but also strategic depth thanks to its turn-based combat that refreshes genre basics by drawing inspiration from role-playing and board game mechanics, particularly through dice rolls. When players form their crew, each member brings unique skills, allowing them to tailor their strategy to their play style.
During tactical phases, players can use skill and attribute cards to enhance their team members and gain an edge over opponents. Raise the sails and uncover the buried secrets in the distant lands of Flint: Treasure of Oblivion.
Here are the key features of the title, providing a brief outlook of what to anticipate:
