Void Warden

Void Warden is an innovative game that blends turn-based combat and tower defense elements developed by Nullpointer Games, dev behind Into the Pit. Their new game focuses on small scale combat and party building.

Players assemble a group of guardians, the last survivors from a doomed world, customizing characters and coordinating attacks to protect their outposts from apocalyptic threats. The stakes are high as the shadows inch closer to the last city with every lost battle.

Void Warden features a unique blend of tower defense and turn-based combat, offering a distinct gameplay experience. Players can customize the skills, equipment, and appearance of each unit. As they progress through the campaign, they can upgrade facilities, unlock new regions and bosses, and arrange skills and party setups to meet varying challenges.

Further depth is added through the game’s narrative. Players can interact with non-playable characters (NPCs) to uncover more about the world, its downfall, and the secret of the void.

In addition, Void Warden introduces the concept of defensive traps on the strategic map. Players can weaken their enemies using these traps, then directly engage in combat at specific locations. The game encourages experimentation with different traps, items, skills, and character setups to discover the most effective combat strategies.

Void Warden stands as an indie tribute to the tactics genre, unfolding in an atmospheric, graphic novel-styled sci-fi world. Set to be released on PC via Steam but no release date yet. Below an overview of the game and Trailer.
