Thousand Hells is a 'tactical narrative' feast of infernal storytelling, but its defeats can feel brutal
From the developer of King of Dragon Pass, a gorgeously imagined meat grinder for hapless adventuring parties.
Thousand Hells, a tactical narrative game, offers a feast of infernal storytelling, yet its defeats can feel brutal. The developer behind King of Dragon Pass and Six Ages games, Kitfox Games, crafted this game to provide quicker, more repeatable sessions compared to their previous work. The story begins in the Eternal City, where players receive a task and select one of four hells to complete.
The game's basic gameplay mechanic involves assigning traits to the party members to overcome randomized turn-based trials. Despite the immersive and imaginative setting, players often experience frustration due to the futility of their efforts and the seemingly random nature of trait selection.
