Experience the award-winning wargame, Ravenmark: Scourge of Estellion, where epic fantasy and turn-based strategy unite! *** CRITICS' CHOICE *** "...We’re especially big fans of games like Nintendo’s Advance Wars. RAVENMARK is striving to be a spiritual successor to that venerable franchise, and there are sublime moments where it comes pretty damn close." - Gizmodo UK "The art is lovely, the strategy surprisingly deep and well-rounded." - Kotaku "Witching Hour's maiden project Ravenmark: Scourge of Estellion is almost everything this iPhone-touting strategy game aficionado could ask for... A complete and utter joy." - TouchArcade, 4.5 out of 5 stars "A classy debut that hits all the right notes and puts other turn-based strategies in the shade." - Tap! Magazine UK, 5 out of 5 stars "Players looking for a truly epic strategy experience on the iOS platform should grab this game immediately." - 148Apps, 4.5 out of 5 stars ------------ Upheaval and chaos approaches the ancient Empire of the Raven. In the world of Eclisse, the ruling Empire of Estellion is besieged by a scourge of embittered zealots from the swamp nation of Kaysan, erased from history by the Empire’s hubris. As the Empire struggles against nigh-endless invaders and ruthless political machinations, its heroes must fight to restore the banners of the raven… Or fall to the Scourge of Estellion. DYNAMIC TURN-BASED COMBAT Ravenmark: Scourge of Estellion is a turn-based wargame, where strategic troop placement is essential to succeess. Battles employ a dynamic “we-go” system where the actions of allies and enemies unfold in a simultaneous battle phase. Commanders must to think ahead, anticipating all movements of their enemies instead of just reacting to them. DOMINATE BATTLES THROUGH THE TOUCH INTERFACE Explore a myriad of tactics at your fingertips with intuitive touch controls and unique management systems, like the Formation system: Group up to three units of a kind into a single formation, which enables special abilities and buffs to crush enemies quicker. The Standing Order system offers A.I. assisted commands that address the headaches of micro-managing the entire army every round. Use these tools to develop your own novel strategies and overcome the odds! THE SYMPHONY OF WAR A rousing cinematic soundtrack underscores the tension and drama that unfolds in the battlefields of RAVENMARK. Composed by Josh Whelchel, lauded for his work with Castle Story and Wind-up Knight, the music will immerse you ever deeper into the world of Eclisse! A VAST LORE TO EXPLORE Venture into the Codex, an in-game encyclopedia which documents the richly storied history and cultures of Eclisse. Unlock new entries as you progress through the campaigns and encounter new nations, characters, locales and more!

Sale on SoE lasts till September 19. As far as I know, this is only the second time RAVENMARK: SoE has gone on sale in the 2 years since it was released so if you have it on your watch list now is the time to pick it up if you haven't yet. SoE has 6 single player campaigns which is 51 missions total so this is a very long story driven single player game. The game is Universal and you can create an account which allows you pick up your progress on either your phone or ipad easily. I like to think I am a strategy game buff having played most premium strategy and board game titles on iOS and this is personally one of my top 5 favorite games on the App Store so I can't recommend it enough! The story is really good too! If you want to try out the game but don't want to take a gamble, I recommend downloading the free episodic version of SOE since it is kind of like a LITE version and the first campaign is free. Then you can decide if you want to pick up the premium app on sale with all 6 campaigns.

With its vast amount of missions, excellent gameplay, huge storyline and background worldbuilding, it ranks in the lofty heights of my all-time favorites, together with such gems as Planescape:Torment. And when you had your share of single-player strategy, go take a look at Ravenmark:Mercenaries, the multiplayer successor. dreadnok Well-Known Member Jun 8, 2011 4,157 7 38 I came here to kick ass and chew bubble gum I'm ou #3 dreadnok, Sep 12, 2013 Your only reason for missing out on this great game is if you're in "jail" and if so break out!

If you have any interest in story driven TBS games then this a must-have. It's an iOS original too! (You must log in or sign up to post here.)
