Lost Eidolons

Lost Eidolons, also known as Lost Eidolons: Rebellion, is a turn-based RPG game where strategy meets story. You take the role of Eden, a mercenary caught in a rebellion against an empire. It’s not a sprawling epic, but it focuses on tactical battles and some decent character-building. If you like your strategy served with a side of fantasy and a no-nonsense approach, this might be your next game.

What’s the gameplay like?

The game splits into two main modes. One, you command troops in grid-based, turn-based battles. Positioning matters a lot here—high ground gives your units a real edge. Two, you explore camps and towns in third-person, chatting with NPCs, recruiting soldiers, and picking up quests. It’s not just about fighting; managing relationships and gear plays a part, too.

Need a challenge? You got it.

• Turn-based tactics with smart enemy AI.
• Character customization—choose appearance, gender, and skills.
• Squad management with units that you train and equip.
• Exploration and questing to keep the story moving forward.

Lesson learned: always carry a spare sword—because things get messy in Artemesia.

How’s the story?

It’s a straightforward tale of rebellion. You follow Eden’s journey without too many side detours or tough choices. Want a complex narrative with moral dilemmas? This isn’t it. But if you prefer a clear path to victory or defeat, this game delivers without overcomplicating things.

Visuals and soundtrack

Graphics are clean and provide an immersive fantasy world without going overboard. The soundtrack stands out—composed by Clark Aboud, the same guy behind Slay the Spire’s music. It sets a nice tone without distracting from gameplay.

Who should play Lost Eidolons?

• Fans of tactical RPGs looking for turn-based combat with a twist.
• Players who enjoy character customization without hours of micromanagement.
• Gamers wanting a free-to-play title with solid mechanics.
• Those curious about a rebellion story that keeps it simple and strategic.

Overall, Lost Eidolons offers a neat mix of gameplay styles packed into a manageable RPG experience. It’s free, so why not give it a shot? Just remember—don’t get too comfortable. The rebels need you.
