Turn-based tactics unfold on compact grids in Puzzle Tactics, where you command the blue team to eliminate red units while safeguarding your own. Mouse controls drive precise moves across small levels that ramp up in challenge with new unit types. Battle smarter by deploying Warriors for multi-target melee strikes, Archers for ranged shots up to six tiles in cardinal directions, Mages who hurl wall-piercing fireballs at groups, high-health Defenders that shield allies from harm, and Necromancers who summon damage-soaking Skeletons for frontline pressure.
Indie strategy fans thrive on these escalating encounters, mastering unit synergies to outmaneuver foes. Each level demands tactical foresight to survive tougher battles. PC players find sharp, focused grid-based clashes that reward clever positioning over sheer force.
Puzzle Tactics is a turn-based and grid-based tactics game played in various small levels. You play as the blue team with the goal of defeating the red team's units before losing your own. Later levels are more difficult and introduce more unit types in battle. The game is controlled using the mouse.
Units- Warrior: a powerful melee unit who can also hit multiple targets
- Archer: can shoot at targets 4-6 tiles away but only in 4 directions
- Mage: can attack with a fireball that hits multiple targets and ignores walls
- Defender: has the most health and can shield itself and allies to reduce damage
- Necromancer: summons skeletons to deal and take extra damage
- Skeleton: somewhat like a warrior, but weaker and with only a basic attack
