HeroCraft PC and Battlecruiser Games have announced the demo release of their new turn-based tactical strategy game, Guards II: Chaos in Hell. The demo is now available on Steam and coincides with the game's showcase at the OTK Games Expo.

Guards II is set in a mythologically-infused underworld, where players lead a squad of four heroes through the scorched, supernatural realms of Hell, inspired by various mythologies from Egypt, Japan, Scandinavia, and Slavic folklore. The game features a punishing tactical depth with every decision mattering, and every swap being crucial.

The demo includes two biomes from the game's five mythological Hells, five heroes with unique abilities and upgrade trees, two bosses, a skill & item system to craft a player's tactical identity, and transferable save-files that can be used in the full game upon launch.

The game is aimed at streamers, content creators, and strategy enthusiasts, and players are encouraged to record, stream, and share their adventures in Hell.

Guards II is a turn-based tactics game where every decision echoes through fire. Players will traverse five cultural circles of Hell, defeat demonic hordes, and customize their party using a flexible upgrade system that rewards smart positioning and timing.

HeroCraft PC is a publisher and developer of PC games, with a portfolio comprising over 10 games focusing on role-playing, action, and strategy titles. The company is currently publishing several games, including Heart Abyss, Union of Gnomes, Chronocracy, and Lord Ambermaze.

The full release of Guards II: Chaos in Hell is coming soon, and every wishlist helps the team survive the flames. Players can add it to their Steam wishlist now.
