About Worlds of Chaos: Invasion
Worlds of Chaos: Invasion is a single player, party based open-world tactical RPG with a strong emphasis on exploration, tactical real-time-with-pause combats and party creation. It has a deep, fun and intense combat system that will challenge you to your limits, and will make clever decisions count.
You build a party of 5 characters that are exactly what you want : no classes or choice restrictions. Creating good and balanced characters with the right combinations of stats, skills, equipments, items and magic abilities, is what matters the most. In this game, a huge importance has been put on making every choice equal in power. What is important for a good party is not choosing the best skills, but an efficient combination of choices that work well together. And that is completely up to you, the player, to figure out. Your combinations will be unique to your style and choices.
Battles are fast-paced, and you will need to take a lot of decisions, each of which will help you overcome the difficult foes that you encounter. Choosing which abilities to use, when and how to use them, choosing the right positioning of your warriors and the right targets for each of them, knowing which equipments and consumables to use and when, are what will bring you victory.

Key Features :
- Single player tactical RPG where you control a party of 5 characters that you create with no class restriction, they are how you decide, completely.
- Very intense real-time-with-pause tactical gameplay that keeps you on your toes.
- Deep combat system that rewards clever party organization and statistical skill outside of combat, and smart tactical thinking inside combat.
- Injuries system that weakens enemies (and party characters) that have been hit, so focusing attacks on one enemy is unnecessary and often a bad idea. Injuring many enemies to make them weaker by taking opportunities in combat and using each of your characters at their best is way better.
- Each situation, each combat demands different strategies. There are no tactics that will work every time, adaptability is crucial. Check combat video to see this in action.
- No dead time in this game unlike most rpgs : corpses are auto-looted, you can fast-travel to explored places at any time, time consuming parts are taken off this game to keep the most interesting ones : exploration, combats, fast loots, fast shopping, fast and simple party management.
- (Early access) The game now has 21 hours of contents and can now be played from the start to the end. It will still be improved but at least you have a complete game.

This is a neat little game. Gameplay Notes: - Plays more like Baldur's Gate, not Diablo. Hit spacebar to pause and issue orders. You can issue individual orders or control the whole party at once. - All melee, creatures and players alike, will automatically backstab if behind the enemy. Even knights with maces. So melee tactics involve getting behind enemies while not letting them get behind you. In a perfect scenario, the creature is facing and attacking one melee while all other melees are standing behind it and backstabbing like crazy. - Big-damage hits will add an "injury" to the victim which lowers all stats. Injuries and corresponding stat lowerings can stack multiple times. So it's often beneficial to attack multiple enemies at once, rendering them all very weak, as opposed to focus-firing and taking them down one-by-one. - The game is not impossible, but it's not easy either. I put it on the easiest setting and still suffered a few deaths (but no TPWs!). A typical example: Travelling along, you encounter a large group of enemies. Run away to clear aggro & regroup, then creep up slowly with one character to "pull" a few at a time back to the group. Pros: - Good depth …25 found this helpful
A fine little game with an active developer. He listens and works to incorporate ideas from his consumers. The combat system is unique and believe me you will need to learn how spells and skills work. Might be a niche game but I like it. 5/30/19 Developer continues to update the game. He now made the tutorial optional and since I already know how to play I don't have to redo this every time I start a new game. the polish and refinements have shown through time and the game just keeps getting better. I really love it. Edit 10/21/21 For CRPG fans I HIGHLY recommend this game. Though I mostly love turn-based, this is more of a real time with pause, but it is..better than the way tripple A titles do it. For instance In most CRPG's, the party all try and focus on one threat at a time. Yeah that don't work here. See what happens here is, as you and enemies take damage your combat performance decreases. Sureyour party could all jump one guy and take him out relatively quickly, but then you would face the rest of the pack who have no combat malus, while your party is now fighting an uphill battle that is going to get worse and worse with the ole "jump one guy at a time" tactics.

This game had a lot of promise, however I have not seen any updates from the dev in a long time. It is unfortunate as I think if it would have stayed under active development it would have been a great game.10 found this helpful
Had quite a lot of promise, but the EA dice rolled:"Vapor" or "Vapour" depending on which side of the Atlantic you live.3 found this helpful
I don't know if this game ever had promise, but the combat AI runs spellcasters into melee, and they aggro the hell out of melee fighters. Also, there is no save feature to protect against such "system" issues. Avoid.2 found this helpful
It's all right.2 found this helpful
