Scarred Steel

Описание

​Scarred Steel is a brutal, solo tactical RPG, inspired by the game Heads Will Roll Reforged, where victory is never clean.

As a betrayed commander, you must dismantle the corrupt Council of Seven through unforgiving turn-based duels.

In this world, you don't just lose health, you gain scars that change how you play.

​Tactical Combat with Real Weight

Every swing of your blade is a gamble.

Manage your Stamina and Balance to keep the advantage during combat.

Target body parts to improve hit chance, damage and balance damage.

Overconfidence in fights is the true killer.

​The Anatomy of Failure

Injuries gained such as broken bones, bloodloss, and swelling can persist through your journey depending on severity.
​
Sometimes you'll have to fight with injuries that debuff you from the beginning.

Success isn't about finishing a fight flawlessly, it's about surviving.

No Perfect Starts

Every run begins with a draft of three randomized survivors.

Here you manage a survivor with unique traits, limited gear, and starting flaws.

​Every new run will give you different trade-offs to make when selecting the right character for you.

Choose Your Equipment Carefully

Heavier equipment makes you easier to hit, lighter equipment leaves you more exposed and weapon types are unique from one another.

Discover which equipment fits your play style, find better equipment and repair them when they lose durability.

Make the best with what you can find.

Dismantle the Council

Navigate a fractured Kingdom across a strategic map where time is your greatest enemy.

​Track down The Council Of Seven, each member possessing unique passive debuffs and decrees.
​
The Council’s influence spreads overtime. Move carefully to avoid patrols, but move quickly before the land collapses.

The Road to Revenge Begins Here.

Before you can reach the Council of Seven, you must survive the man who started it all. The Baron

​Can you navigate the ruins, endure the injuries, and claim your first taste of vengeance?

🗒️ A Note from the Developer

Scarred Steel was built solo using AI-assisted tools for its visuals, music, and code.

Full Transparency: I have included a 3-minute video in the media gallery (next to the trailer) detailing exactly how AI was used during development and why I use AI.

Play the Demo First: I encourage everyone to play the free demo before purchasing. I want you to judge the game based on its mechanics and "feel" to ensure it’s the right fit for you.
