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?

Незадолго до релиза разработчики во время общения с комьюнити обещали, что за пару лет всё сделают. (конечно, я могу ошибаться, но чётко помню, что где-то подобное вычитал). Поверил им - и купил игру ещё летом 2020 года, когда был вечно голодным и пьяным студентом без копейки в кармане. И вот - лето 2026 года, прошло шесть лет, а воз - и ныне там. Ни системы создания персонажа, ни сюжета - спасибо, что хоть караван добавили спустя несколько лет. Ещё и платное длц со скинчиками выпустили. Крч проверяйте игру лет через пять, если разрабы не забросят - может и доведут до вменяемого состояния.
毛子游戏真的别扭,不好好做内容搁这做平衡
몇년 만에 와도 만든거라고 있나 싶다 평생 천천히 만드는 척하다가 유기할듯 .
Спасибо за автолевелинг, ДУРА. Или баланс билдов правьте, или делайте сложность в зависимости от локаций. Как чистить 12 уровневым арбалетчиком данджи с 3мя черепами? Бегать обосранным рывками? Выбегать из данджа постоянно? Говна наебните опездухи. А и еще круто, что тебя догоняет противник в следующем экране, но если ты попробуешь догнать дичь в следующем экране то она дематериализуется, очень честно по отношению к игрокам
Ironically the tutorial is the best part of the game. Manageable enemies, get to taste a little bit of everything, end boss has a pattern of attack and special mechanics. First time I tried it died over and over then I learned how it works and beat the boss before he could even do his special move to restore health. Once you get into the open world though the game crashes and burns in my opinion. Go around do some side quests for the shopkeeps by picking flowers in the wilderness for 10 minutes, pick up a quest and head out to a nearby dungeon, arrive to see 3-4 bandits outside the entrance, they see me and chase me across the map as I do small attacks at distance. Only to die to the last dude who is supposed to be an archer in melee. Inside the dungeon? From my experience when the game first came out, they were about 1-2 blocks wide, maybe 3? So you could relatively keep enemies locked down by stunning 1 then body blocking the other and engaging with him while the rest piled up behind, as was my strategy with melee characters. Now however they made the corridors so wide, it may be the 3 I mentioned before, or it is 4 wide, either way its too much to actually block anything which is detrimental since you walk into a room and you could have 4 guys on you and since you can't kite very well in dungeons, you just die by being ganged up on losing an hour of progress and reloading when you last slept at town. No way to deal with large swarms of enemies, combined with their high damage output early on, and you just die way too much when you can't save at will. Basically the game feels like a dice roll on if you win or not, rather than anything you did to prepare. A shame as I did want to like the game.
Sixth year waiting for ability to create custom character. In the meantime we got ton of usless little things. Terrible development cycle.
80% of the time its fun but the 20% of the time when its not its literally the most miserable ♥♥♥♥♥♥ game ive ever played. And ive played league for 15+ years so i would know. theres nothing more ♥♥♥♥♥♥ annoying then spending 20 minutes walking somewhere, having to fight 18 bandits along the way so when you do get there youve got 3 broken limbs, severe pain, and 3 different mental illnesses, your inventory space is so limited that if you want to have any hope of bringing something worth money back you cant bring many healing supplies or food, the only items that increase inventory take the place of your cloak so youre sacrificing defense. overall its mostly just a pain in the ass, but if you hate yourself and want to play a game that makes you miserable youll probably like this.
this game has one of the most ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ and rng heavy combat systems i have seen i don't even feel like i can do anything against enemies i just either get rolled with me feeling like there is no counterplay or roll the enemy over like it was nothing it's just not fun also forgot to mention how they waste my time with no saving like really i have to do 10 minutes of walking and progress again cuz an enemy crit me and i died and sleeping bags are kinda expnsive considering how much you spend on gear healing food and traps
Der Survival Anteil des Spiels ist komplett unnötig schwer gemacht Hunger, Durst, Diebstahl, Knast, null Inventarplätze und davon musst du dir 60% reservieren für die ganzen erbärmlichen Survival settings - alles komplett überzogen und lenkt vom gesamten Spiel ab. Nichtmal die Truhe in den Wirtshäusern kann genügend Sachen lagern, was einfach jeglichen wunsch zu erkunden und Dinge zu sammeln ausradiert, weil du eh keinen Platz mehr hast - passt auch perfekt zum wirtschaftssystem ingame wo es anscheinend wichtig ist bestimmte Dinge aufzubewahren um sie später bei anderen Händlern zu teils sogar 50% besseren Preisen verkaufen zu können. Safepoints nur beim Schlafen in einer Taverne oder einer Bedroll die 30% deines Inventars einnimmt (Bedrolls werden nach 1x usen einfach verschwinden, was absolut keinen Sinn macht wenn das Spiel schon realistisch sein will müssten diese am Platz liegen bleiben) , Items haben keine Stacks außer Geld, Safefiles werden anscheinend überschrieben und du kannst nur aus 3 wählen, was mich dazu gezwungen hat einen Safefile zu laden in dem ich für 22 Tage im Knast bin und dadurch psychische Schäden davontrage. Keine Einstellungsmöglichkeiten für Spieler die kein Bock darauf haben und eher ein Rpg enjoyen wollen statt so ein billiges nervtötendes Survival was dir aufgezwungen wird. Combat, Story, core turn system, skilltrees, items und stats hätten mich dazu gebracht das game durchzuspielen aber so wie es aktuell ist wird es 100% nicht erfolgreich Geld verdienen und die refunds regnen lassen
Small Indie team bit off more than they can chew and now they want more "support" for a game that is FAR from release due to the very slow dev cycle where the roadmap gets longer and longer as more things are added. Whatever you see in the roadmap, split every "update" in half or thirds and that's how many updates it will take, and, with maybe 2-3 updates a year were looking at maybe a full release in 7 years?, but, other uses claim this game has already been in development for 8 years. Game is cool but we're going on a year now with no character creator that was teased on one of the roadmaps and as hardcore as this game is I don't like idea of my save becoming incompatible. Come back when the game is actually released and I'm hopeful it will be worth your money but until then it's likely best to wait.
