Key features of Sunderfolk include:
- Rediscover Game Night: Up to four players can play Sunderfolk, with each player’s phone or tablet acting as a seamless interface for character management and controlling the action on a television or local/streamed monitor screen for a fresh spin on the classic game night experience.
- Answer the Call to Adventure: Choose to play as one of six distinctive heroes with varying abilities and strategic roles–Arcanist, Bard, Berserker, Pyromancer, Ranger, or Rogue. Heroes can be tailored and customized with weapons, armor, items, and skills as they level up, enabling players to create a robust, well-rounded party equipped to overcome the challenges ahead.
- Step Into a New World: Sunderfolk is a handcrafted fantasy setting full of imaginative locations, exotic creatures, and eccentric characters. Dark forces emerge from the Sunderlands and threaten Arden; it is up to the players to protect the peaceful village and its inhabitants. Arden serves as a base of operations that expands with new shops and services as players progress through the game. Return to Arden between missions to upgrade vendors for more items and equipment and befriend the townsfolk to gain rewards.
- Put Tactics to the Test: In combat, players must strategize positioning and turn order, selecting from their deck of Skill Cards to execute movements, attacks, and use items. Luck is also involved, with Fate Cards playing every turn that can impact their effectiveness. Players gain experience and rewards as they complete missions, gradually unlocking ways to customize decks. The key to victory is understanding the heroes' strengths and collaborating on a strategy based on the battle map and monsters in play.
Sunderfolk releases April 23 on on Steam, PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch.
