Blind Commander

Blind Commander is all about formulating strategies with limited information. While in most strategy games you get a clear bird's eye view of the battlefield, here you're locked inside a single room. You'll find nothing but a map, a handful of messengers, and some game pieces to help you figure out the winning strategy. Will you be able to defend your lands from the Savage Ones and save your kingdom?

YOUR EYES AND VOICE

You're too valuable to be endangered - relay orders to your troops and countrymen through royal messengers! Whether you need to know what's happening in a specific zone of the battlefield, deploy units from your garrison, or command a cavalry charge, these loyal and fleet-footed courtiers are your only hope.

TOOLS OF STRATEGY

Use a variety of tools to help you achieve deep tactical play in a first person, tabletop-themed game. Scribble on your map, use game pieces to predict your opponent's moves, and read through the kingdom's Compendium to come up with devastating war plans.

A KINGDOM IN TATTERS

The long chain of command has broken down, the top ranking officers having lost their lives while fulfilling their duties. As the last viable candidate, you're this small kingdom's only hope of victory and glory...

Since the savage ones' arrival, the kingdom has had no option but to retreat further and further. This small castle is one of the last bastions of your noble line. A reluctant advisor will help you, acting on behalf of the king, while you grow into a leadership role of vital importance.
