These are good times for those interested in tactical RPGs with unusual combat systems. We posted about Action Squad Studios' Iron Danger back in 2018. As with Broken Lines, the developers have danced back and forth between calling it a tactical RPG or merely a tactical combat game. But it still seems to be what it was then - a colorful steampunk fantasy game inspired by Finnish folklore and featuring simultaneous turn-based combat with time manipulation abilities. Last year the game was picked up by Daedalic Entertainment and its release date was finally announced in January. In addition to the launch trailer, they also put together a longer feature trailer that should give you a good idea of what it's about.


If you want to give it a try, Iron Danger is available on Steam or GOG for a not-so-cheap $35 with a 15% launch discount (for two weeks on Steam but only one on GOG for some reason).
