About the Game
Enter the Tactical Nexus:
What lies underneath the cute and colorful pixel-art RPG facade is nothing less than one of the world’s most difficult hand-crafted puzzle games. A combination of resource management, logic puzzles, and tantalizing power-ups are your tools to climb up the enemy-riddled floors of each Magic Tower! Tactical Nexus is a single-player Magic Tower game inspired by the classic game “Tower of the Sorcerer,” combining magic, power-ups, and multitudes of monstrous foes to defeat and delve deeper into each Tower!
From the team:
This is our Puzzle RPG that can be played for 10,000 hours. A resource management game with overwhelming “quality-of-life functionality" to conquer puzzles with overwhelmingly high difficulty. One of the world's top 3 indie games in terms of average play time.
Features and Content
Join the Human Hive Mind
A robust Discord community server invites all players to share their high scores as well as their Memos and strategic insight. Work together to find the best solutions that you can—there will always be a way to improve! Become the trailblazing hero with the most Sunstones, find new routes and solutions, or make new friends as you learn to play one of the world’s hardest games!
"Won't using the Discord for help make the game no fun?"
This is normally the case for a puzzle game, and in a few situations, you might find a particular experience more hollow in Tactical Nexus due to the help you receive, but Tactical Nexus does avoid a common 'pitfall' of difficult puzzle games:
it never ends or runs out of genuinely novel problems with extremely particular solutions.
Tactical Nexus remains in active development with more DLC on the way!
The small development team is always looking for feedback, will respond to your messages and questions on the Discord server, and even implement your suggestions.
