About Lost In The Open
A demanding roguelike tactical RPG, where every fight and decision revolves around YOU.You are King Nrvesk, despot of Ruedome. Your reign was bloody, oppressive, and unjust, but was brought to an end by your neighbouring ruler, Boros II of Stratha. Under the pretence of a diplomatic meeting, an attempt on your life was made as you sat across a man you once considered an ally. Narrowly, you escaped.Nrvesk is your company’s most powerful asset, but also your greatest vulnerability. His death in battle means the end.Lost In The Open is designed to be a challenging experience. You will face an ever-growing roster of deadly, unique enemies. They will pull your allies out of position, lure you into traps, and coordinate to flank you. Learn their weaknesses, fight strategically, and protect your King. A powerful Strathaian vanguard follows you tirelessly. You must traverse the dangerous terrain between Stratha and Ruedome and encounter hundreds of difficult decisions. Do you take the well-forested path where you risk becoming beasts’ prey, or the high ground, where you are exposed and easily tracked by man? Do you pay a hefty toll to avoid a fight with bandits? You will not be alone in your adversity. Manage a diverse roster of recruits. Train them to become specialists, or jacks-of-all-trades. Create quick-bladed bloodletters, mighty human shields, patient bowmen. Equip them with strange trinkets, bolster their weapons and armour with unique attachments. Nrvesk’s life lay in his companions’ hands; shape them to your advantage.

the balance in this game is waaay off. It is not hard it is poorly thought through. one elite can break your lines and then one shot every guy in your party ignoring attacks of opportunity.11 found this helpful
Challenging and fun game, reminds me of Banner Saga. ACt 1 was longer than i expected which was great but hope to see an update regardigng the other two parts or at least Act22 found this helpful
First let me say I am almost at 60 years old and have been gaming since my friend got Spitfire for his Apple/MaCintosh back in 1982/83. I absolutely love the storyline General/King betrayed by a trusted ally. Game play is also spot on for me with turn based combat (remember I am old). The only down side so far and it is probably me is I cannot for some reason beat the boss/army at the end of act 1. 1st play through my fault ran through quick to avoid pursuit and ended up getting decimated. 2nd play through went slower but did not have all the mechanics down (blacksmith upgrades for weapons and armor and syndicate upgrades) got smashed again. 3rd playthrough went slower pursuers on my heels kept my team down to 12 level 4 and above good mix one crossbow, two archers, two skirmishers, the rest melee mouth smashers and guess what got my ass whipped again. Albeit it was closer but my main character keeps getting stunned over and over where he is useless. Does not mean I am through as I am on my fourth iteration on the lowest level (they all have been) with what I believe is a better party. My question, is there currently an act II. I read there was a two and three but was that somethin…1 found this helpful
Another one that I really wanted to like. Unfortunately I think 'Into the Stars' did the oregon trail theme a little better. Didn't refund, hopefully they take another stab at it. 3/10 * I'll give it another try after the early access is over.
hard core game
is good
