Herogrinder: Tactical Combat Arenas

Herogrinder, the most brutal gameshow of the 24th century is a game like XCOM, but PvP.

Herogrinder is a free-2-play turn-based tactical PvP and co-op combat game in a retro-cyberpunk setting under development by the indie studio Modern. The game uniquely combines deep character progression and customization, simultaneous turns, destructible and re-arrangeable environments, stealth, drones, hacking, and area effects. The goal is to deliver a fast paced turn-based tactics experience without wait times and with unrivalled degrees of customizations.

Limitless combos and outcomes

Every turn has limitless outcomes, depending on the use of squad tactics, skills, equipment, the environment, and readied actions to get ahead of your opponents’ game.  There game uses a classless system with 15 base ability scores and 20 selectable combat conditioning systems from over 500 available options but also has 20+ different pre-set advancement progressions.

Outcomes depend on a number of factors including the initiative order, success or failure of actions, and how readied actions are used to get ahead of your opponent’s game.
