Silk

Released: 10/11/2019

Explore three million square miles of uncharted terrain from Roman Damascus to Three Kingdoms China in an exploration RPG that transports you onto the Ancient Silk Road of 200AD as an intrepid traveller or a ruthless conqueror. From a parallel dimension where they still make tile-based RPGs in 2019 comes the new game from award-winning game designer Chris Bateman. Can you puzzle out the secrets of the four distinct challenges await you in Silk? - Explore the vast expanse of the Silk Road in an epic journey across dangerous wilderness as The Traveller. - Overthrow Rome's greatest enemy, the powerful Parthian Empire, as The Rebel. - Master the art of raiding to capture the fortunes of rival kingdoms as The Warlord. - Carve out a trading empire between the brutal battlegrounds of the Silk Road as The Noble. One colossal world, four unique challenges. Do you have what it takes to master Silk? - Level up any seven of the thousands of Advisors in the game as you hire your perfect party, each of which unlocks hundreds of unique choices in the world - Battle, Trade, or Explore: play the game your way as you amass a well-provisioned caravan or build your own renegade army - Discover the lost genre of tile-based RPGs remastered for the twenty first century
