[quote][b]Note: Dead PvP game[/b] This game contains no meaningful single player content. There are no available servers and no player population. This game cannot be played as intended.[/quote] Trying something slightly different, but badly, the game is a hyrbid between turn-based tactics and real-time 1v1 duels. The gameplay involves strategic placement of units on a tactical board to gain advantages, followed by real-time combat with unique piece attacks. None of this is implemented remotely well and the game was dead on arrival. Despite being unable or just too lazy to bother actually making their game, they had all the time in the world to create greedy cash grab DLCs for the game. Appalling. So, Wyrmicide is a dead PvP game. Why did it fail? It's video game autopsy time! [i]Almost every PvP exclusive game on Steam fails.[/i] Only a tiny proportion of them "go viral". This game failed for many of the same reasons those others fail. The chief of which is the developer thinking that their game will "go viral" without actually creating any reason for it do so. Competition amongst PvP centric games is extreme, and there's only a finite player base to appeal to. Th…

it's actually quite cool and interesting but it has some problems. since it's an indie it's difficult to have a live multiplayer so the singleplayer needs to carry it and currently it's unbalanced and way too easy. Edit: the dev listens to feedback and bug report, now the difficulty is much more balanced
