Sydney, Australia – October 30, 2024 – Microids and Savage Level are thrilled are excited to unveil a new exclusive sneak peek of the upcoming tactical RPG, Flint: Treasure of Oblivion. The video offers over 4 minutes of commented gameplay, giving players a detailed look at the game’s mechanics, pirate-themed world, and role-playing depth.
In Flint: Treasure of Oblivion, players will explore immersive environments by interacting with local inhabitants to progress through the story and unlock additional quests. Throughout the exploration, players will have to collect cards with items linked to the story as well as Tactics. These cards allow Flint and his crew to level up, gain new weapons, and improve their dice rolls and attributes like defence, dexterity, and health. Through this gameplay system, players will be able to use accessories, skills, and attributes in combat phases.
Before setting out on adventures, players will need to assemble a diverse team by choosing from the pirates they have recruited in the various classes each with their own specific skills set including Surgeon, Freebooter or Helmsman. Different sailors can complement each other, and combos can be performed by pairing two members of the same class, creating situations that can change the course of a fight.
Battles in Flint: Treasure of Oblivion emphasises strategy. Players can take advantage of the environment by using verticality to fall on an opponent from a high point or push a barrel to topple an enemy and take the advantage.
The game incorporates a strong tabletop role-playing dimension, with success in combat based in part on the results of dice rolls. These can be mitigated by the skills of team members and strategies adopted in combat, enhancing players’ chances of success. This luck factor also applies to exploration phases, such as opening chests or certain narrative sequences.
