Thornbound

Turn-based combat

Thornbound is a PC turn-based combat game in which you face the Unbound under an oath written in thorns. Each turn, read enemy intentions, choose a target, and decide whether to Attack or Guard. Damage their Resolve to leave them Staggered, creating an opening in a dangerous encounter.

Sigils and rewards

Victories earn Oath Points to spend in a branching web of Sigils. You can build Power, reinforce your defenses, and reach Keystones for bonuses. As you grow, Recompense lets you learn an Ability, ascend one you already have, accept a Blessing, or find a passive Relic. Abilities charge each turn and fire automatically; Relics reward particular ways of fighting. You can equip up to six Abilities and buy Relic slots in the Sigil tree.
