What is Astral Throne?
A top-down, turn-based tactical RPG set in a land covered by memory-stealing fog from a fallen star. Each run, you choose a route across a changing overworld, recruit and equip a party, and fight handcrafted battles. Your recruits and choices affect the story.
For you if...
- +you enjoy building different teams across repeated runs
- +you like planning around weapon types and unit positioning
Not for you if...
- −you want a long, fixed campaign instead of repeated runs
- −you dislike turn limits and the risk of permanent losses
