Re-Roll Entertainment Takes Karnage to Kickstarter!
Beijing, China, September 9, 2015 (Newswire.com) - Re-Roll Entertainment is proud to announce the Kickstarter launch for 'Karnage: Dawn of Upheaval;' An old-school, 2D top-down and isometric hardcore fantasy RPG for smartphones and tablets, that offers complex tactical turn-based combat, and a unique, dark and branching storyline - with hundreds of hours of gameplay.
“With this game we aim to challenge the typical paywalls and energy gating mechanic that plagues the mobile platform today by completely removing them, and instead offering a real long term game experience for hardcore gamers, in a free-to-play game on mobile, that you can choose to play whenever you like and as much as you want. Through earlier trials we have a proven concept for monetization in free-to-play that does not require paywalls designed to hide a lack of real content,” says CEO Thorbjørn Olsen.
Execute your own strategies to secure victory: Take the lead and guide your party through a complex tactical turn-based combat system that lets you decide where, when, and how to face your demons.
Fight, live and evolve: Equip your heroes with weapons, armor, and magic, then delve into a deep character development system that lets you select perks and powers to augment your party to suit your playstyle.
Live through the end times: You start the game prior to an imminent cataclysm, then come face to face with the old powers tearing the world asunder. Finally, the aftermath will see you emerge into a new reality based entirely on the choices you have made.
- Actions have consequences.
- Choices matter.
- What kind of world will your choices create?
A playable game demo of level 1-3 from one of the five starter areas has been sent to game journalists across the world, and the company is currently working on a web client aimed towards YouTubers who make videos about RPGs and mobile games.
“Karnage: Dawn of Upheaval” will launch simultaneously on iOS, Android, and Windows Phone. With tablets receiving a custom made UI suitable for the larger screen and horizontal play.

About Re-Roll Entertainment:
An independent game development company founded by long-time gamers and game developers, we came together to create Re-Roll Entertainment because we grew weary of the corporate approach to game design that focuses solely on monetization. With the motto “Gameplay is Everything” firmly fixed in our minds, we make games we’d like to play ourselves. This means we turn to all of our favorite gaming experiences (pen and paper roleplaying games, board games, classic CPRG titles, fighting fantasy books, etc.) for the inspiration to do what we do best; creating deep and story-driven gameplay set in vast and unique worlds.
To accomplish this we employ almost 20 people, many of whom are industry veterans having worked on titles such as: "Anarchy Online," "The Secret World," "Age of Conan," "High Noon," and “Path of Exile.” Our mission, in short, is to return the industry to the roots of what made games great; giving the player fun, immersive, and unique experiences.
