About Dyadem

There is a Tactician in Everyone!

Dyadem is a turn-based strategy RPG inspired by classic handheld entries.

Follow Prince Aureli chapter by chapter, reclaim your homeland, and learn the truth behind its invasion.

Acting as the Prince's trusty tactician, It falls to you to...

  • Plan and execute your team's attack and defense strategies.
  • Forge friendships and deep bonds with a vast cast of characters.
  • Create a mighty army with a diverse set of strengths, skills and personalities.
  • Manage, upgrade, and maintain your army's weapons and equipment... or capture your enemies and use theirs!
  • Assign promotions and titles to grant a variety of roles and abilities.
  • Target weaknesses to render the enemy unable to counterattack.
  • Take advantage of the unique properties of your Infantry, Cavalry, Armour and Flying units.
  • Handle the loss of allies in high-stakes permadeath gameplay. (If you so wish!)

Dyadem also features multiple difficulties to accommodate players of all types from chill genre explorers to seasoned veterans. Make the game easier ("or brutally difficult") at your leisure!
