About the Game
Grotesque Tactics is a story driven, satirical RPG with a strategic combat system. A party of 10 anti-heroes are fighting in a grotesque world that combines the features and clichés of Western and Asian Strategy RPGs like Final Fantasy Tactics, Heroes of Might & Magic and Fire Emblem.Grotesque Tactics weaves a humorous storyline and plenty of amusing dialogue, poking fun at some of the most successful RPGs, such as Oblivion, Gothic and Lord of the Rings.
To protect the kingdom from the merciless cult "The Dark Church" which has murdered all of the kingdom’s heroes and knights, you will have to hire dubious soldiers and rescue jealous maidens who will follow you into combat as your groupies.

GROTESQUE** TACTICS: Evil Heroes
GT-EH currently
A bundle of 3 Grotesque Tactics series games is priced at $1.59 US.
The reluctant protagonist is a knight of questionable talents and problematic “emo” fits, who is drawn into a quest to save The Kingdom of Glory from the mercilessly minions of an evil cult; the Dark Church. He ends up teamed with a strange group of fellow questers that includes a supremely arrogant Demi-God, a blood-thirsty Vampire, an ill-tempered horny Angel and assorted other beings.
AND there are Killer Rabbits, deadly attack Mushrooms, and scores of other villainous creatures to overcome ... Treasures to find … Dungeons to clear … Scantily clad Virgins to rescue from ferocious Monsters … Outfits to upgrade and equip … Vicious and angry Bosses to defeat … Heroes to level up … An Angel to satisfy.
Combat is by turn-based tactical battles with comical animations; dropped weapons, etc.
Throughout this RPG/quest, there always is humor and satire. Gamer MUST pay attention to the dialogue or it is easy to miss it.
An interesting note from the store page ...
** In chess, a “Grotesque” is a problem or endgame study that features a particularly unlikely initial position, especially one in which White fights with a very small force against a much larger black army.
Grotesques are generally intended to be humorous.
Doesnt work! Some script bug error.
If you are a fan of old school Fire Emblem and similar games, this is likely to be a very enjoyable experience.
The story isn't particularly complicated, but what there is is none the less satisfying with some interesting twists. There aren't many different locations to visit, but it none the less does a decent job of using what it does have well - and even plays it for humour at one point, highlighting that you have been to a location before.
The actual strategic systems are a bit clunky, but ultimately satisfying to master. It never feels like the difficulty comes from fighting the games systems instead of the opponents it throws at you. This said, the difficulty curve can be quite high, and because there is a finite amount of all resources in the game any early setbacks can be crippling by the end of the game. And sometimes you do need to be careful of the camera, as it can cause you to issue an unintended order in a few of the more obstructed environments.
Overall this game is obviously intended to appeal to players who like a tough challenge, but if that's not for you the developers have actually left a lot of options so that anyone can enjoy the game - beyond simple difficulty settings, the developer console (think ID Software or Valve cheat codes) is readily accessible and you don't get penalised by the game in any way for using it.
There is about 3 hours of content to be experienced here, but expect it to take about 18 hours to get through everything if you are good at these sorts of games, or about 36 hours if you find these sorts of games more challenging.
