About

Stoneshard is a challenging turn-based RPG set in an open world. Experience the unforgiving life of a medieval mercenary: travel across the war-torn kingdom, fulfill contracts, fight, mend your wounds and develop your character without any restrictions.
There’s no hand-holding, and the game will punish you for your mistakes: you’ll have to carefully prepare for each expedition, plan your actions in advance, and weigh your resources against possible risks. Saving can only be done in certain spots, so each wrong move can potentially lead to a swift death and lost progress.

Open World
War always leaves its mark: villages lie in ruins, dungeons are infested with monsters, and old roads are abandoned. Travel through Aldor and learn more about its past.
Caravan
Gather your own caravan to travel the world. Acquire upgrades for it and recruit followers - their knowledge and skills will likely benefit you along the way. Feeling weary? Return to your camp to hear new stories or just rest by the fire.
Economy
The wartime economy is ruthless, but it also presents many opportunities: fulfill contracts, hunt for treasure, trade in a variety of goods, and travel the land to earn your fortune.

Character Development
Experiment with 200+ abilities and 400+ equipment pieces without any class or level restrictions. Create your very own playstyle!
Enemy Variety
Take part in intense battles against numerous factions. Brigands, abominable cults, the undead - all of them require a unique approach.
Tactical Battles
Only the thoughtful ones shall prevail - plan a few turns ahead, adapt to your surroundings, and fully utilize your character’s strengths.

Health System
Master the simple but deep health system: cauterize bleeding wounds, relieve pain with alcohol and drugs, practice bloodletting and heal your maladies with various concoctions.
Psyche
Different in-game situations have a distinct influence on your character’s mental condition. High morale may turn the tide in your favor when fighting even the most hopeless of battles, while low sanity brings panic attacks and paranoia.
Permadeath
Do you like risk? Then try out the Ironman mode, where every decision is irreversible and your character dies once and for all.
New Content
Additional settlements, enemy factions, and even more activities, equipment, and abilities.
Main Story
To solve the mystery of Stoneshards, you’ll have to undertake a long journey full of dangers, hardships, and adventures. What choices will you make in this bleak world?

I first tried out this game when it had just been released into Early Access. Conceptually I am so here for it. The turn based battles, art style, the whole thing. It is quite difficult, but if you like games that are a bit of a challenge, especially if you enjoy games like Battle Brothers (a personal favorite of mine). While the updates have been slow, they have been working on this game continuously and I cannot wait to give it another go in a few months when the next big update comes out.
Очень интересная пошаговая игра с интересным лором и прокачкой персонажей.

First of all, I refunded the game. I play games on my main PC, which runs Linux. Visually, the game is beautiful—the pixel art is fantastic. Unfortunately, the performance was a major disappointment. For a turn-based pixel art game, it felt surprisingly slow. Even launching the game took longer than I expected. Loading between areas would leave me staring at a black screen for around 12 seconds or more, which seemed very unusual. My computer isn't a high-end gaming machine, but it's far from being a potato. I regularly play games like Caves of Qud, The Doors of Trithius, ToME, Dungeonmans, Minecraft, Vintage Story, and Valheim without any performance issues, and none of them feel as sluggish as this game did. I also noticed my computer's fans ramping up significantly while the game was running, suggesting it was putting an unexpectedly heavy load on my system. I'm not sure what's causing these issues, but my overall impression was that the game is poorly optimized. It's a shame, because the art style and presentation are genuinely excellent.
it can be chill but mainly the turn based action of the game makes it enjoyable and very strategic, this is also the first game i have ever played where i have had to take a break from the game to mentally reset myself after being absolutely whipped by some basic enemy that just happened to be luckier than me. Currently I rate this a 9/10 and this game is still in beta.
Incredibly challenging, charming art style, beautifully well put together RPG. We don't even have character creator yet, but I feel like the existing archetypes fulfill any playstyle you're looking for. Don't be afraid to die, it's how you learn. Try different ♥♥♥♥. I've thrown objects at the back of fleeing enemies' heads and gotten kills, I've drowned to death, I've been annihilated by most wildlife, I've been stabbed and beaten, poisoned. tl;dr: game gud, will play even more than i already have
The game is so good I bought the game after playing it pirated.
재미는 있는데 이거 1.0 나오기는 함?
항상 긴장감있고, 쪼들리는 용병생활을 잘 묘사함
