One that is challenging, sure, but ultimately rewarding. It makes for a very enjoyable experience. I was able to get a feel for the game within my first few battles and then I could concentrate on strategy and tactics, rather than trying to still fight new systems and controls. Honestly nothing outlandish here and Fort Triumph benefits from it. You get you usual unit classes, action points, rules, etc and you’ll need to out fox your opponents to win and progress. It is the same with these types of turn-based action strategy games. Like if a racing game stops using triggers for accelerate and brake, or an FPS isn’t using the standard control scheme. The X-Com portion of the game is something that I find is difficult to really change up, whilst it hasn’t been perfected as such, when a game tries to do something wildly different it just feels off. I do understand though that others may feel different. So the ability to get enjoyment from the campaign and then enjoy skirmishes against bots is ideal. I dread needing to play these games online, as I know I will lose every single time. The game is very single player focussed, something I have seen some complaints about online, but as someone who struggles with this genre at the best of times, it is a welcome thing. I don’t usually find myself able to connect with fantasy world settings, but Cookiebyte Entertainment have done wonderfully well in building a world that managed to draw me in.

The HoMM stuff is pretty decent and I enjoyed the exploration that comes from it. Something other games in the genre seem to fight against. It all works within the game’s own rules and is designed to keep you moving forward to get enjoyment from the experience. I would say there are some light 4X elements in this, which at first had me concerned, but to my surprise, it is very manageable. You get he turn-based battles of X-Com whilst Heroes covers a lot of the rest of the game. Thankfully I found Fort Triumph which really scratches that itch.įort Triumph is a game heavily inspired by both X-Com and Heroes or Might & Magic, something the developers happily mention on their own descriptions of the game. I enjoy the X-Com style game without the X-Com difficulty. One game that does tempt me though is Mario & Rabbids. A solid effort with strategy appeal, but perhaps not groundbreaking either to pull in new people to the fold.With all the issues around Ubisoft I am happy to boycott them. What may win or lose the day will be the fantasy setting and the more contemporary sense of humor to things, for some pulling it away from being stuffy and serious but for others it could perhaps be a bit grating.

Though the view of the field tries to be helpful with a free camera there are situations where it can still be hard to see precisely what you want to, and it can lead to some unusual shots as well of the action as it unfolds. This means you’ll at least need to change up some of your typical planning to take the best advantage of the opportunities they afford you. What I like about Fort Triumph is that it borrows some great general features from that franchise but then adds in some new tweaks and smart abilities that are a bit different and fresh. Let’s be honest, though many games have attempted to capture some element of the X-Com style of tactical strategy combat, very few have done a Let’s be honest, though many games have attempted to capture some element of the X-Com style of tactical strategy combat, very few have done a decent job of it. Score: 8 - for performance on switch imo it work well on switch but personally it could load a bit faster (not included a new generation map) 9 - for game play 4 - for not many units and not at least 1 unique unit for every race (castle) I got hope they will add more class Like druid or shaman ? maybe bard ? better as unique for races 9 - for deep manage for units every possible class u can build with skills and over nice things like artifacts etc is cool 7 - for fighting mechanic in most scenario the best what u can do is push environment on enemy so using a difference skills (that not use landscape manipulation) is a bit grey and a little weak for use that bad Wish they will add at least 2 more castle(race) more points of interest in map I think even now in that shape its good to have game like this game is really fun and i enjoy it a lot … Expand Imo it Great Indie game with a bit lack of content but price is ok with it. Great Indie game with a bit lack of content but price is ok with it. Fort Triumph deftly blends the genres of turn-based tactics and strategy, neatly wrapping them up in a masterfully deconstructed fantasy package.
