Gem Wizards Tactics is a turn-based strategy game with randomly generated maps and weird asymmetrical factions. Designed around endless single player play, Gem Wizards Tactics has three factions each with their own unique abilities which not only combine within factions, but you can also pick up units from other factions and combine them into your army to create new strategies.
The Business Demons have risen from beneath, and they're here to frack, drill, pillage and burn everything in sight! Follow the tale of young Derby Pocket, a Business Demon Intern, who discovers the dark secrets of the OMNIGEM!
Don't let the cute art fool you: this is a deep, complex tactics game that'll provide a wicked challenge for years to come!
Gem Wizards Tactics is a deep, dynamic turn-based strategy game with five complex, super-asymmetrical factions! Designed around endless single player play, Gem Wizards Tactics' factions each have their own unique units and abilities which you can use to create super-combos! You can also pick up units from other factions and combine them into your army to create totally unheard of, weird new strategies! Design your OWN weird tactics - stuff the designer never even dreamed of!
In many ways, Gem Wizards Tactics will feel familiar to fans of Advance Wars, Fire Emblem or* X-Com*. However, the challenges you'll face here are much less puzzle-like, and a lot more emergent and surprising—so your strategies will have to be as well. In this original turn based tactical war game, you take your army through a series of battles in which you’ve gotta capture the flags before taking too many losses!
Take tight, puzzle-like tactics in the vein of Into the Breach and 868-HACK, add a big Fire Emblem-style overall package, and wrap the whole thing up in a nintendolicious candyflake aesthetic, and you have the new @keithburgun game, and it's great. - Frank Lantz, Director of the NYU Game Center
Gem Wizards Tactics is a whimsical and approachable turn-based tactical game, much like Into the Breach; 3 asymmetric factions, procedurally-generated maps and enemies, excellent synergies. Super fun.” - Designer Plays on Steam
For the most part, every unit is extraordinary, which provides an excellent amount of depth when it comes to strategizing. - Turn Based Lovers

The Gem Wizards Universe also has partying undead skeletons, stuffed animal bunnies, huge bug people, and a bunch more, so look forward to new factions being introduced in free future updates! Coming to Steam for Windows. Later on, will be coming to more platforms as well.
