Wargroove is a modern take on the simple yet deep turn-based tactical gameplay popularised in the 2000s by handheld games such as Advance Wars. As big fans of those games we were disappointed to find that nothing in this genre was available on current generation platforms and set out to fill the gap ourselves.

One of the most common pieces of feedback we get on Wargroove is that the game is either far too difficult or far too easy - which makes balancing it that much more difficult! Though, even as developers we sometimes struggle getting that S-rank and have even failed our missions, embarrassingly, on stream in front of the community. If you’re anything like the majority of us, then you’ll know that sucking at the game is half the fun.

Adrian Vaughan as Wulfar

Adrian has lent his voice to a rag-tag collection of characters in video games such as Crawl, Armello, Paradigm, Budget Cuts 1 & 2, and the upcoming adventure titles Harold Halibut and The Drifter. He's also appeared in a handful of award-winning competition titles he's quietly proud of, plus some radio/TV commercials. When he's not doing his best to be all kinds of sinister or gruff, Adrian spends his time writing bios in the third person - 'cause nobody else will.... Read more

Thieves can’t do this alone though! Since they’re unable to attack, they’ll need reinforcements, subterfuge and protecti... Read more

Author: krakauer, Chucklefish ProgrammerHello everyone! Today we’re doing a public beta of a long awaited PC feature, modding! We’ve been testing it ourselves, but as you are all much more creative than us, we’d really like your help to break it as much as possible while creating cool mods! How do I access the beta?

Once you’ve done that, Steam should install the beta and you’re ready to go! How do I make a mod?
I have written a document to help you get started, which you can find on the Wargroove wiki[wargroovewiki.com]! (Is this document j... Read more
