Rimelands: Hammer of Thor is a turn-based roleplaying game with dice-based combat. You and your enemies take turns to perform single actions (similiar to roguelike-games), outcomes of which are determined by rolls of dice, visible on the screen. You also have a limited number of opportunities to re-roll the dice, adding a new layer of tactical decisions to the rolls.Keep in mind that IndieGoGo charges you the pledged amount immediately, rather than at the end of the project's funding period.
The game has three character paths, but no fixed classes so you can mix and match a character to your liking. Each path has unique talents that bring in a variety of strategies for you to utilize.
Rimelands mixes randomly generated levels with pre-designed ones to provide variety for multiple playthroughs.
Rimelands is set in a steampunk world where mankind has recently re-emerged, after a thousand year long ice age, only to discover that magic has returned on Earth, and a mysterious beings called the Fae with it.
You play as Rose Cristo (though you get to change the first name), a young woman raised by her loving grandmother, as she accidentally stumbles onto an adventure that will change her life -- and the lives of those dear to her.
The story of Rimelands: Hammer of Thor is inspired by pulp adventures of old and thus bears more resemblance to Indiana Jones than to Lord of the Rings.
