This allows a great level of planning and tactics to go into encounters if you so wish, but is also forgiving for button mashing simpletons like myself. If you already have a good knowledge of the D&D system then your enjoyment of this game is only likely to go up from here.Ĭombat is turn based and includes variables such as lighting, distance, verticality, cover and the strengths and weaknesses of the characters. If you want to play this like any other similar RPG you can, without any more understanding of the dice system than higher usually equals better. There are several difficulty levels that allow you to focus more on the story or to get really into the tabletop rules should you choose. I was immediately concerned that my enjoyment of Solasta was going to be dependant on my understanding of these various factors and how they interact with each other, but it does a solid job of allowing you to control the complexity and involvement you have with this system. The dice are built into the game and auto rolled, with the end result (alongside other factors like your characters various skills) dictating the outcome of what you are attempting.
Tabletop games rely heavily on the roll of various dice to calculate the likelihood that something will or won’t happen, and Solasta is no different. If like me, the previous sentence means very little to you, I will try to break down what it means in the simplest form. Solasta uses the Dungeons & Dragons SRD 5.1 ruleset, and from reading other reviews it is a very faithful reproduction of the system. I want to make clear that whilst I have always been interested in tabletop RPG’s, it’s a rabbit hole that I have not yet ventured down, so please forgive any errors or oversimplifications of a craft that I know can take some time to master. I think it’s fair to say that this game is aimed solidly at lovers of Dungeons & Dragons and other tabletop pen and paper RPG’s, but us mere mortals will find a lot to love too.
