![]() The tone of Fort Triumph is mildly conflicting. The multiplayer side of things aren’t as important, nor the skirmish as it’s pretty clear what that is. You’ll also pick up a few acted dialogue pieces, but it’s predominantly text through the campaign. A typical fantasy-like score accompanies the action, which sounds good, but is often understated. The map presentation is a bit dated, but everything else looks good. Besides manoeuvering around the battleground, you can zoom in on the action, and Fort Triumph is a good looking game. Source: PRĪ mouse beats a controller hands down, but the controllers work well on the PS4 and are swift and accurate. Magic dealers are great for manipulating the environments from afar, the paladins are perfect tanks, and though they don’t have the best defence, barbarians can lay on multiple attacks. Other units include magic dealers, said paladins and barbarians. Archers were my favourite unit, though they were like glass cannons: set out of the way with overwatch on and it’s a killer, but allow an enemy unit to get too close irrespective of the archer’s level and equipment, they’re probably going to get wiped out. ClassyĪs for the variety of classes, they’re good. Ideally, it’s the tried and tested tactic of having tanks up front, with your ranged at the back, though it’s not always that straightforward. Not too far into the game, enemies get multiple turns and debuffs, effectively killing your characters in one move. Ideally, you should level up the characters by using them to perform as many kills as possible alternatively, hire them from HQ ‘pre-packaged’. In early battles, I was able to win from calculated pushing tactics alone.ĭeath comes quite often, and though you can toggle permadeath, you have to revive the characters from your base. Making use of the environment is fundamental to survival, but the standout here is using this positioning to attack your opponent, such as pushing rocks or trees onto them or kicking them through the wall of a house. Source: SteamĬombat is the core gameplay and is usually fun. However, you don’t spend much time in these sections as this is typically for recruiting and building your base. Switching through the menus with various hotkeys is a bit clumsy and, therefore, a little easy to buy something you didn’t want or reverse engineer where it is you need to access. What’s On The Menu?įort Triumph is intuitive in its design and will be familiar to anyone who’s played a turn-based game with RPG elements, though the menu system is a bit clunky. Heroes can also equip two items to improve their stats and consumables, such as a health potion or Capri Sun. Level indicates experience and a more accomplished skill tree. Their name, class and level will show, and more specifically, their price – the higher the level, the more expensive. Heroes are hired from the base and are random. It’s not the biggest of areas to explore, but due to the increasing number of enemy units pinching all your resources, it’s wise to invest in multiple patrols, switching up your heroes to include a balance of ranged and melee combat. The map clearly states your objectives, so it is possible to ignore the active enemies and instead concentrate on those guarding loot. Has anyone used ‘the world is your oyster’?. All the while you’re exploring, enemy units will be doing the same thing, so you’ll need to put a stop to them by engaging in battle. ![]() In the campaign, you’ll venture out into the misty procedurally generated world to ravage resources such as coin and magic to invest in your HQ and buy recruits and consumables from merchants when on the road. Fort Triumph Review (PS4)īut some of the elements that make Fort Triumph different to other titles is the world map and base-building features. That said, if you’re likely to overpower them, there is an option to auto-win, so there’s a slight arcade feel to it at times. As a turn-based game, you need to strategically place your units to overcome the enemy – usually when the odds aren’t too favourable. I did this to fast-track the review, but in truth, it didn’t make that much difference.
