Toy Tactics is now available for Windows
on Steam,
offering a real-time strategy game from Kraken Empire and Joystick Ventures that
will come to consoles later this year. This puts you in command of an army of
minifigs and toys that will do battle in your hand-drawn formations, as shown
off in the
Official Steam
Launch Trailer. There is also a playable demo. And if you're not taking this
seriously due to the whole "toy" thing, be aware the description invokes
The
Art of War:Commander! This battlefield might look playful, with
minifigures of Roman Imperium legions and their mastery of fire, the cold hearts
and their own icy forces of the medieval Pendragon squads, the stealthy
movements and precise strikes of the Kyoukai Samurai, the quest for treasure…
and victory of the Freebooters Pirate army, and the necromancy-fueled forces of
the Draugr horde Undead warriors. But I assure you, when the Undead mounted on
their prehistoric friends extinguish you, you won’t be laughing!
Thankfully, Commander, we’ve brought forth the legendary Sun Tzu himself to
teach you the Art of War. Emphasis on art, as you command your army with a
powerful, mystical paintbrush that lets you draw formations with ease. Use
magical spells, relics, the environment as your ally, physics that intensifies
battles and wobblers to gain the upper hand in
combat.
