![]() ![]() Things just kind of hum along in Vampire Wars and it’s really refreshing, with turns feeling much livelier than most games of this type. Then once the action begins, you’ll move across the battle-map, attack, use items and environmental hazards/buffs, and create scenarios that give you the best chance of winning.Īs I mentioned above though, it’s all done at what feels like a brisk pace. Before a fight starts, you’ll place your units. When you’re actually in battle in Vampire Wars though, things go about how you’d expect from a turn-based title. More than a few times I easily won a fight after being told I had no chance. Just uh… don’t put too much stock in that. It’ll tell you if you’re in for an easy time, a harried battle, or a nearly-surefire loss.

Immortal Realms: Vampire Wars sets players into the boots of several vampiric leaders of major clans. ![]() So, as I mentioned, this one is pretty interesting as far as the backstory goes.

While I’m not a massive fan of vampire fiction, this particular title plays things in a somewhat unusual way. Yes, the title is a little obtuse, but this is a strategy title that has some bite… pardon the (intended) pun. And that’s just what’s on tap in Kalypso and Palindrome Interactive’s Immortal Realms: Vampire Wars. Well, tis the season for a little vampiric action, I suppose. The undead take a bite out of turn-based strategy in Immortal Realms: Vampire Wars.
