About this game
You are no hero … no prancing knight or scholarly wizard but a champion of the dark gods. As their chosen, you have command of legions of barbarians, beastmen and demons. Wield unholy strength, necromancy and hellfire to bring ruin to the civilized realms. Honor your gods on the bloody fields of battle in a quest for power and ascension.
Demon’s Rise: Lords of Chaos is a turn-based, tactical RPG set in a brutal and unforgiving fantasy world. Taking place amidst a horrific war in the cold north, the campaign will see your party fight innumerable enemies, huge monsters and powerful sorcerers. Victory will require the tactical use of terrain, morale, formations and magic. Build an increasingly powerful war band, command demonic allies, and crush those that stand against you.
• Tactical Choices: Use terrain effects, cover and line of sight to gain an edge over your enemies. Employ spells to hinder powerful enemies, area effect damage to clear the field of lesser foes and buffs to strengthen your allies.
• Build Your Party: Choose from 20 diverse character classes to build your war band. Your warriors will improve with every victory, becoming stronger and unlocking new powers and skills. Acts of courage and savagery on the battlefield will bring favor from your gods, which can mean the difference between glory and defeat.
• Collect Gear: Equip your warriors with powerful weapons, arcane objects, runic armor and legendary artifacts. There are thousands of items to find and collect, each with their own stat effects and background lore.
• Campaign: Fight through a lengthy campaign and numerous side quests that span more than 40 hours of play time. No level caps and the ability to replay levels at a harder difficulty add to the longevity.
• Engaging Lore: Immerse yourself in the history of Tarren, the world of Demon’s Rise. A land of broken empires and shattered kingdoms where armies of humans, demons and other races fight for bitter survival.

Upcoming Game Release - Strike Team Gladius
Strike Team Gladius is our next major release. We've been working on it for the past year and half. It's built on the same core, turn-based game engine as Shieldwall Chronicles but adds lots of new game mechanics such as explosive terrain objects, new ability types, passive skills and lots more. It continues the storyline of Strike Team Hydra but brings the combat planet side. Larger maps in a variety of locations, each with their own tactical nuances.

The sinister Werespider who is an armoured melee fighter with the ability to use its webbing and paralysis poison to ensnare and weaken its enemies. It also includes updates to the store to make the item sorting easier to use. This version includes an upgrade to underlying game engine so there are a lot of performance improvements and other changes under the hood. This may result in some odd behavior so if you notice anything, please let me know and I'll work on the fix. I believe most, if not all, items have been addressed but it's always possible something slipped through.Read full article on Community Announcements (WaveLightGames)AnnouncementsOfficial
