Today’s Spotlight is Fae Tactics, a turn-based strategy RPG by Endlessfluff Games and Humble Games.
The game is set in the same universe as one of Endlessfluff’s earlier games, Legend of Fae. The game follows Peony, a young spellcaster that inadvertently becomes entangled in the growing conflict between humans and the magical fae.
The game features a unique menuless combat system. Units and characters automatically perform special actions and spells when they move, attack, or wait when under specific circumstances. The combat system is also heavily based around assists, and Peony can use her magic to summon fae allies, or cast powerful spells.
You can find the launch trailer below.
Fae Tactics is available on Windows PC (via GOG, Humble Store, and Steam) for $19.99.

Fae Tactics
In Fae Tactics, follow a young magic user named Peony on her journey across a vibrant world full of mystery and danger. Summon allies, cast spells, and befriend a motley crew of characters as you dive into the growing conflicts between man and magical beings known as fae.
Story
Long ago the world of magic was separated from the natural world by Elemental Gates. One day the seal on the gates was broken, flooding the natural world with magical fae creatures once thought to be myths. The worlds merging was imperfect and much of the land was torn apart. The devastation claimed the lives of most of the population of natural and fae creatures alike. Those that survived have forged new lives in the ruins of the old worlds, but growing tension between man and fae threaten to finish what began with the opening of the gates.
