The Swashbugglers

About this game

A cartoon-style 2D rogue-like auto-chess game focused on tactical strategy, while maintaining a witty and lighthearted tone. Set in the late years of a Reptilian Dynasty, where corrupt officials and local despots collude in evil deeds, disasters erupt everywhere. Players must recruit various reptilian "heroes" from the greenwood forests to form a team. By continuously building characters' skills, equipment, and stele inscriptions through battles, defeat the chaos-causing leaders within the time limit.

Sly swarms of cockroaches, venomous mosquito soldiers, manipulated giant flesh worms... The game will ultimately feature diverse enemy types, including basic foes adapted to different terrains, as well as unique boss leaders with their own mechanics. Enemies will also come with randomly attached curses, presenting players with composite challenges throughout the adventure.

Hundreds of bizarre pieces of equipment, multi-dimensional character skill progression—players can freely mix and match, unleash their imagination, and test different build strategies.

Blades are merciless, bullets have no eyes—sometimes you even need to watch out for allies behind you taking a swing. Make sure to arrange formations carefully before battle and understand skill effects!

The games just really bad, lots of translation issues, screen resolution problems, overlapping fonts. The actual gameplay is meh at best. Not worth buying to be honest. I'm refunding mine.

Lol, game is awful. Art, translation, music (possibly the worst), font selection. The dev recruited someone to translate English, but the translator lied to get the job. Many, many, many translations are horrible. For example, the skill "shield wall," does rapid damage to enemy units and is supposed to be called "fire shield." Or "spear" is called "javelin," etc. Next, "..." is some Chinese? translation that I wouldn't know what it means cuz I can't read Chinese characters. Before I bought the game, I thought the art was bad--BUT I was willing to give it a shot anyways--in case the game was good. NOPE! The alligator NPC looks like a rock to me; difficult to see as an alligator. The font is some graffiti-type that you need an AI translator to decode. The music...is like someone pooping in a sock, then slapping you in the face with it. It goes from decent in-battle to Disney flute ballad for 3 y/o girls. --Like, WTF?! (seriously) During the tutorial, it told me to position a character so his skill wouldn't hit the other character. Then the other character ran directly in front, point-blank, and got hit 35 times by the skill anyways. Once, I got to the character purchase store and saw the Chinese skill descriptions, I packed-up my bags and quit cold-turkey. Swashbugglers isn't ready for the Engrish market. It should stay in China with the rest of the dogmeat.
