About Wartorn
Wartorn is a single-player, squad-based, roguelite where players play as Yara and Elani, sisters who have been driven from their home and must traverse the wartorn Isles of Talaur to reach the safety of Beynun, their ancestral fortress. Harness the elements in fierce real-time battles while upgrading a crew of fantasy creatures as you search for your family.
Systemic Elemental System
Wartorn features a systemic, emergent gameplay system using the elements of fire, water, tar, plant, and lightning. Strategically choose your squads to master the elements and environment against hordes of enemies. Water extinguishes fire, tar amplifies fire, electricity crackles across the ranks in wet conditions, and water can heal plant-based units. And that’s just scratching the surface!Squad-based Combat
Build out your Caravan by recruiting squads of fantasy creatures including goblins, elves, demons, treefolk, (and more!) as you travel the world. Each squad adds new strategic options to your caravan through their different characteristics and unique abilities. Mix and match what squads you bring into battle to truly master a run. Battlefield positioning, squad combos, and skillful usage of abilities can win the day, but be careful, losses cost you morale, and if your caravan loses hope it’s game over.Strategic Replayability
The game’s blend of strategic and roguelite elements offer deep replayability, with each run feeling fresh thanks to emergent gameplay, dynamic squad management, and unpredictable narrative events that can save your struggling band or cost them their lives.Locating your lost Family
Search the Isles of Talaur to meet Yara and Elani’s family, who reveal pieces of the game’s story and grant the player heirlooms that bring with them new advantages and abilities for future runs.Explore the Overworld Map
Explore the Overworld Map, which shows off the massive scale of your journey. With branching paths and unexpected outcomes, every choice leads to new challenges. Be sure to monitor your hope, your food, and take care of your squads!What Steam players say

The gameplay is okay. Art is very nice. The coding is obviously not efficient. But the writing. The writing and voice acting are both top notch childish and corny as teenager's first draft. These devs sound must be kids who've never had a single hard life experience to write something so childish.1 found this helpful
Fun game. Took me a little bit to get into it, but well worth the price at that point. I'm still learning new strategies and tricks 25 hours in.
The game is very pretty and unique. And had the post launch care been better I would wholeheartedly endorse the game. However, they never fixed some extremely annoying bugs and in its current state I can not recommend it. The fire is still invisible and the game randomly slows to a crawl when opening the caravan interface that only a restart can fix. And in a game where fire is prevalent and extremely punishing that is just not acceptable.
I like battle mechanics and how rogue-like elements integrated into story
Great game. People complaining it's hard are just bad.
Love this game!
