This is an old story. The story about four mercenaries, graduates of the biggest independent organization in the world called the Academy. Just released from the Academy they decided to rest in a small tavern "Excess tooth" and ended up in the maelstrom of events that could lead either to the tragic death or to the glorious victory. In the tavern, they got involved in a fight with the local lads and, of course, they are win. But exactly this fight marked the beginning of misfortune adventures of four brave heroes who were to defeat death in all its guises.

Golden Sword is old school RPG with tactical turn-based battles and steathe missions offers to plunge into a classic fantasy world advanture with orcs, magic and all common elements. You can create a party with your own characters or choose among the pre-ready characters. The game offers extensive features of customization and big variety of tactical tasks.

Features:
  • A big adventure with rich text descriptions and variety tactical battles.
  • Detailed character customization (amulets, primary and secondary weapons, different types of armor, etc)
  • The ability to use the environment during combat
  • Choose among the different fighting styles (defensive, offensive, balanced)
  • Steath missions!
  • Tiled map editor for your own advantures!
The UI reminds me of Drums of War. Looks cool.

Sounds interesting and has a very reasonable price. Does anybody know more about it? Open-world or linear?

If I'm not mistaken, it's the latest iteration of a Russian freeware title "The Mercenaries of Kraslin". It's mission-based, although I don't know whether the order of missions is completely linear.

the sprites and tilesets for this game are ripped straight out of Battle for Wesnoth, looks like the same engine too with some modification. I think even the cursor is the same.

is someone selling a Wesnoth campaign on steam :)
