    Hi!

    I'm very proud to show you our next game, UHR-Warlords. It has been in development for a year and is very close to completion.

    UHR-Warlords is a turn-based tactical boardgame. It takes place in Noordh where the Warlords and in constant fight for supremacy.

    The game features 2 campaigns each having 6 chapters. We also have local(pass and play) and online multiplayer.

    UHR-Warlord is a game made in co-operation with Demonaz, a black metal musician from Norway. Demonaz has made 6 music tracks, one to each of the Battlegrounds you see on the map above.

    I'll be updating this thread with news about development and screenshots as we go into the dreaded last 10% ;)

    I personally don't like the theme of it, it's too dark - devilish and I'm not a kid. I would prefer to have a normal theme with gladiators, fighters, simple fantasy creatures and not horns, pentagrams, etc.

    Look for example the Hearthstone which is a normal game with normal graphics for all the audience. It's not too childish but it's not too dark either..

    I hope it will have a depth in the gameplay.

    This looks interesting but is this going to be a premium game or a freemium game?

    The theme is the brainchild of the co-creator on the project, Demonaz. His day job is being a black metal musician. So the theme is pretty dark, yes, but not devilish I would hope. We live in Norway and a lot of us are used to winters with no sun for months.

    The game will be pure premium. No in-app purchases. As well as being developers, we are consumers and we prefer buying premium products.

    Looks really good. Reminds me of the Heroes of Might and Magic battles :) Will the heroes level up and gain skills? Do the terrains alter the battle conditions?

    I like darker themes, so color me interested.
    Do you have an estimate for a release date already, as you write "close to completion"?

    Thanks for the interest, people! The Battlegrounds (terrains) do have variations in what we call Uhrkraft Springs. These are control points in which you can hold for increased Uhrkraft (the force used in all actions).

    There are no upgrades available. We designed it to be a game of skill and thusly decided that equal opportunity was imperative in competitive multiplayer. But the Runes(spells of which you select two for each battle) are player chosen before combat.

    We've announced today that the game will be released in February, but our target date I won't disclose just yet ;-) Stay tuned.

    May the Urhgods be with you ;-)

    Looks cool, kind of game I just buy regardless of price point and how long I actually gonna play it.

    Gotta laugh of your company's name, get me back to the c64 days. I think I saw one of your other games on levelUp, some naval warfare battle was it ?

    There are thousands of cute ponies and fairies game on the AppStore. So, please let us have just a handful darker themed games.

    I hope the game mechanics live up to the quality of the art. I have a feeling that this is gonna be the first surprise hit of 2014! February can't come soon enough!

    Glad you like it, guys! I am of course obscenely biased, but it think you will love UHR-Warlords.
