Kickstarter 10/14/24 - 11/13/24

We're holding a Kickstarter campaign to fund the game's development! Backers can get the game for a lower price, design special characters, and access early builds of the game! We appreciate your support!

This Is Just the Beginning

This demo contains two playable chapters and has about 30-60 minutes of content.  There is also an additional survival challenge that players can attempt after the story chapters. Some assets such as audio, graphics, etc. are not final.

Controller support is available, but it's recommended that players who wish to use a controller download the Steam version of the demo, since it works better with some normally incompatible controllers like Nintendo Pro Controllers.

Employ unique strategies using your units' arsenal of skills, weapons, and equipment! Give skills unique effects with Positive Marks, freely throw units around the map, control the enemy's attacks with the Aggro system—the list goes on!

Avant-Garde Punk Presentation

Inspired by expressionist art and punk aesthetics, the world of Stratagem Lost comes to life through its twilight punk art direction. Feast your eyes on grungy, stylish visuals in every aspect of the game! Battles play out with striking illustrations, story scenes are imbued with vivid imagery—everything is cranked up a notch.

Stratagem Lost features an abundant cast of characters, each with their own unique design, gameplay, and voice. Characters can establish Comrade Duos with one another, allowing them to share skills, enabling boundless team building. Each character can also sport multiple color palettes for some fun visual flair!
