You are dragged from the black tides to the jagged shore of Idra, where the air sticks with seaweed and the cries of gulls echo over a world that hides terrible truths. In SKALD: Against the Black Priory, survival means deciphering eldritch mysteries as you lead a band of broken heroes through a dark, retro fantasy. The game fuses the storytelling warmth of classic roleplaying with modern design, all wrapped in authentic 8‑bit charm that evokes a by-gone era while delivering contemporary depth and challenge.

Turn-based tactical combat: command your crew through perilous encounters, choosing to cleave, blast, or strike from the shadows as you outsmart deadly foes drawn from Lovecraftian lore.
Manage a living party: recruit diverse allies, tailor their stats, and equip them with a rich array of spells and gear. A modern inventory system, quest logs, and journals help you uncover hidden secrets and track objectives; when things get tight, auto-resolve lets you bypass combat on demand.

Prepare thyself for the road ahead by crafting and cooking from a variety of distinct recipes. Build your party from a dozen classes and varied backgrounds, then guide them to level 20 as you customize spells and equipment to suit your preferred playstyle. The journey is unforgiving, and your choices ripple through a world where every decision can alter fate.

Venture forth into a world of grim atmosphere and choice-driven dialogue. You live the life of a mercenary in a land where danger lurks behind every corner, and luck—rolled by dice—can decide whether you survive a peril or slip into grave danger. The narrative twists and turns as you uncover grand schemes across the Gallian Empire, Freymark, and the Outer Isles.

Witness a richly illustrated world built from thousands of hand-drawn tiles using a Commodore 64-inspired palette. For true retro enthusiasts, an optional CRT filter is included to recapture the glow of classic displays.

Mods are welcome: SKaDE, the SKALD Data Editing Tool, lets you create and play new adventures using the game’s assets. Powered by Mod.io, it unlocks a world of user-generated content at no extra cost, inviting you to shape the saga beyond the Black Priory’s gates.

Where will your imagination take you in SKALD: Against the Black Priory—the grueling, glorious retro RPG that blends old-school charm with modern depth, on a quest from tainted shores to the ominous gates beyond.
