Orlando, FL, 07 November 2024 | Price of Glory, the inaugural title from independent AA mobile studio Marauder Tech Games, is available today in Open Alpha. This competitive turn-based strategy game introduces players to a unique tactical fantasy world with strategic challenges and cash prize opportunities.
Duel Head-to-Head
Welcome to Price of Glory, an asynchronous turn-based strategy game where players can compete for real rewards. Set in a medieval fantasy world of constant conflict, gear up for action and engage in strategic combat across arid deserts, dense forests, molten lava flows, and more. Price of Glory is a game of pure skill where nothing is left to chance. Players must carefully protect their stronghold against enemy forces while taking turns to advance into each other’s territory, overcome the opposing army, and destroy the enemy base to win. Clever positioning, effective attacks, and tactical foresight all play an important part in this strategy mobile title.
At Your Command
Lead your army to glory and choose from a diverse roster of factions and their associated units. Scouts help you see through the fog of war, enabling coordinated attacks from your soldiers, knights, and ranged units while healers keep your troops alive. Unique generals customize your army, offering a different playstyle through their special abilities. When facing your enemy, carefully consider your next move and available resources. The game’s primary resource, Animo, is used for spawning new units, moving, attacking, and using special abilities. A limited amount of Animo is generated each turn, meaning every choice matters. The gameplay is asynchronous, so players can engage when they’re able and check back later. The standard 24-hour turn limit allows for casual strategy, while the game’s blitz mode sets quick 5-minute turn limits.
Play Your Way
Price of Glory offers a variety of challenges for every type of player. Boasting a “play how you want, when you want” style, the game’s asynchronous gameplay and various game modes cater to novice strategists and seasoned veterans alike. Are you looking to test a new strategy? The “Skirmish” quickplay mode drops players straight into the action. These one-off, low-stakes matches are perfect for those looking to play casually or practice new strategies. For serious competitors, tournaments up the ante, pitting four, eight, or more people against each other in a single-elimination bracket with larger rewards.
Ripe With Opportunity
With sights set on developing a competitive scene, Price of Glory will offer two types of tournaments: salt and cash. Salt tournaments are entered using salt crystals, the main in-game currency. Salt crystals are rewarded by watching in-game advertisements and by completing small tasks. These salt crystals can be used to enter cash tournaments, giving every player a chance to earn cash rewards through skill. A unique Dynasty system will also offer all players an opportunity to earn additional rewards based on membership activity within their dynasty. Players can also join daily bonus tournaments in the game’s Discord for larger cash winnings!
Gameplay Features:
Asynchronous play encourages players to play how they want, when they want, giving them up to 24 hours per turn or 5 minutes in blitz mode.
Strategic gameplay challenges players to think outside the box as they manage Animo resources, control strategic tiles, and maneuver around various map layouts to outsmart their opponents.
Casual play is possible through the “Skirmish” quickplay game mode, one-off matches between players that are great for practicing new tactics.
Two tournament modes offer competitive play for those looking to up the ante, with a F2P option through Salt Tournaments and Cash Tournaments for serious competitors.
A Dynasty system rewards players for inviting friends and being active in-game to receive benefits.
Daily cash tournaments can be entered by retrieving a join code in the game’s Discord. A new code will be available every day for a new prize!
Price of Glory’s Open Alpha is out now for iOS and Android. Players in North America and Oceania can download the title now, and more regions will be available soon. More information on Price of Glory is available on the game’s website, and eager players can join their community on Discord for sneak peeks, daily tournament codes, and more.
