Das dänische Entwicklerstudio Playwood Project hat eine Kickstarter-Kampagne zu Wartile gestartet, ein Echtzeit-Strategiespiel im Mittelalter-Szenario, das den Charme von Tabletop-Spielen einfängt und euch, in Kampagnen- oder Multiplayer-Partien, mit Miniatur-Figuren in die Schlacht vor Diorama-Kulissen schickt. Als erstes Finanzierungsziel werden 55.000£ (ca. 71.000 Euro) aufgerufen, außerdem steht eine Demo-Version auf Steam und als Stand-Alone Variante zum Download bereit. Weitere Details zum Spiel und die Möglichkeit zur Unterstützung des Projekts findet ihr auf Kickstarter. Die Veröffentlichung des Spiels soll im März 2017 zunächst für PC und Mac erfolgen - spätere Versionen für Tablets und Konsolen sind möglich.




WARTILE is a medieval fantasy themed strategy game that invites the player to select a band of miniature figurines and embark on a campaign or a multiplayer match, set on gorgeous diorama Battle Boards. Figurines, their special abilities and your hand of godly and tactical cards are the tools to rule the board. Wartile captures the tabletop feeling, while adding its own digital style, magic and humor. Tactics weigh heavily in WARTILE, where a unique cooldown system adds the flavor of turn based games and gives you the time to outsmart, trap or even use Godly powers on your enemy.

"We've been hard at work for the last two years, and now, we feel ready to reveal to the world WARTILE! We're now looking towards Kickstarter to help secure the required funds we need to progress with the development of WARTILE." said Michael Rud Jakobsen, Creative Director at Playwood Project. "We've released a tentative pre-alpha tease on Steam for you to play and familiarise yourself with our miniature universe and hope that you love it as much as we do. We really look forward to hearing what you think in our campaign comments. It's only with YOUR help that we can make WARTILE a bigger and better game."
