Default Conclave - Now available on Steam

January 26th, 2017, 02:14
The tabletop inspired RPG Conclave is now available on Steam:

Conclave is an online RPG with the story and turn-based combat of a classic fantasy tabletop campaign. It supports both solo play and co-op parties of up to four players, who can adventure together in real time or take turns separately at their leisure.

The game is set in and around the lands of the Conclave, last refuge of the Kin. Its story begins with the unexpected return of a long-vanished Dreamcaller and leads to the discovery of an ageless secret locked within the heart of the Conclave itself.

  • Play a campaign of 25 interconnected adventures that combine combat encounters with story decisions.
  • In combat, take advantage of your abilities and the special qualities of each encounter's battlemap to defeat your foes.
  • During story decisions, choose from options unlocked by your skills, traits, and previous decisions. Your choices influence your path through the story, the encounters you face, and the resources you can draw upon to defeat them.
  • As you gain renown, the Conclave shares better equipment to complement the special items you discover on your adventures. No scrounging for useless items to resell.
  • Five archetypes support a variety of play styles: Vanguard, Beacon, Rogue, True Bow, and Runecaster.
  • Five playable races, all unique to the game's setting: Trow, Nix, Mezoar, Lumyn, and Forgeborn.
  • Not near your desktop? Log in and play through a browser at playconclave.com.
Conclave is the work of the two-person team of 10x10 Room, with additional artistic and musical contributions from Chris Rahn, Devin Night, Christina Roberts, and Sam Hulick.

This does seem pretty interesting. Did anybody actually play this game and can comment?

Not exactly, but I can try. I Kickstarted this so my sons and I could play, but they quit, so I only got a character to level 3.

It's a light turn-based RPG. As I recall, there are some decisions the party votes on, but it's mostly combat. What's interesting about it is it's essentially play-by-email coop. Each person can just log on quickly and take a turn. If everyone's onllne at the same time, you can play in real time. If one or more party members don't log on to move in 24 hours, I think it is, an option can be set for the AI to move their characters. So, it's, potentially, asynchronous coop multiplayer.

Also, you can play in a browser, and it works well on my mobile phone.

I tried the game via my browser. Combat is SLOW as there is a LOT of button clicking during combat. There is, however, a really good board-game "feel" to it. Frankly though, I can't see myself paying this kind of money for what amounts to browser-based game even *with* quest content. I would pay maybe 5-8$ for it, but nothing more.
