Renowned Explorers: International Society Released

Renowned Explorers: International Society is now available, offering an adventurous strategy game from Abbey Games. The Renowned Explorers website has details on where to get a copy and also offers a launch trailer with a look. Here's word:

Shortly after the success of the god-game Reus, the monks of Abbey Games decided to abide with their vision by creating another original PC game of one of the classical genres. They did this by combining strategic gameplay with an adventurous theme and art style. This rare combination, together with their innovative ‘Attitude-based gameplay’, makes this game truly one of its kind.

According to Adriaan Jansen, co-founder and game designer; ‘’We took our inspiration from FTL and XCOM, plus an unlikely source; the Sims. We created a world full of procedurally generated locations to explore that feels like those of Indiana Jones and Tintin. The player can choose how to approach any encounters ahead: violently or verbally.’’

Attitude-based gameplay is a new type of tactical turn-based combat. While guiding your explorers across the globe in search for treasure you can encounter locals that require a strategic approach to deal with them, be it through a physical or social course of action. Each explorer has his or her own expertise and character traits when dealing with the locals. Players can choose among 20 unique explorers divided into Fighters, Scouts, Speakers and Scientists. The speaker Yvonne Lefevre for example is Montreal’s cruel mistress. Assertive, intelligent and the center of attention, her charm and powerful lectures can confound any thug. Do keep in mind that your choices have an impact on your reputation.
