To The Grave: The Hunters of Faenora

About

To The Grave: The Hunters of Faenora pits you against cursed ruins and corrupted enemies as a squad of customizable mercenaries. Grid-based combat blends RPG progression with turn-based tactics, position hunters to exploit weaknesses, manage limited resources, and survive encounters where one misstep means permanent loss. The medieval fantasy setting leans into grim realism, with a story that frames dungeon crawling as a grueling job for struggling soldiers. Each run mixes procedural challenges with hard choices: save a teammate or spend their gear, loot a chest or avoid spreading corruption. The game’s optional blockchain features let you trade rare units, though permadeath ensures no character stays alive forever. While the pixel art and tactical depth draw comparisons to classic strategy titles, the emphasis on brutal difficulty and player-driven economy sets it apart. Early reviews note its punishing learning curve, with a 73% completion rate on toughest difficulty. For those who stick through the early losses, the blend of squad customization and high-risk resource management creates a grind that feels earned, if never easy.

Storyline

Welcome to the Mercenary town of Donegal, where the monsters are real, the job is deadly and the King’s idea of a “restoration program” is sending broke mercs into cursed ruins while he sits on a throne. The Wildlands of Faenora? Allegedly sealed off to “contain corruption” from an unsealed nethergate, but how did it actually get unsealed? Now you're part of the medieval fantasy spectacle, forming your squad of hunters and slashing your way through horror for gold, fame or a loaf of bread. Just remember: if you start asking too many questions, you might be the next thing labeled “corrupted".
