Overfall
May 17, 2016 10 years ago
Overfall is a fantasy role-playing game of rough diplomacy and tough action. You will lead two heroes on a journey across the high seas in search of their lost king. You will encounter people of all breeds and all creeds; ally with them or crush them without mercy. You will face many dangers; survive them and you may unlock new characters, weapons and skills. In a world where death is permanent, you must return to the beginning and make a fresh start. The heroes you choose, the weapons you unlock and a world that is randomized mean that no two adventures will ever be the same.
What it’s like
Overfall delivers a poignant, turn-based tactical experience set across the shifting seas of a surreal fantasy realm. You guide two heroes through a randomized world where death is permanent and every run offers a fresh narrative canvas. The core appeal lies in its exceptional writing; dialogue ranges from the absurd to the deeply tragic, fostering intimate connections with a diverse cast of allies and enemies. Combat is strategic and challenging, requiring careful positioning and resource management against tough foes. Visually, the game boasts unique, high-quality art that enhances its atmospheric mood. While the story builder can feel complex for newcomers, the combination of stimulating tactics, rich character histories, and player-created content via the Steam Workshop ensures long-term engagement. It is a rewarding blend of strategy and role-playing where no two adventures are ever alike.
