There are no submenus or ability buttons in Summoners Fate. Instead, characters automatically perform the appropriate action for the target you select. For example, Paladins have a melee attack and a healing ability. If you want to attack, drag to an enemy unit. If you want to heal, drag to an injured ally.

In this video below, Cleric can attack the Skeleton Breaker or heal the injured Fighter Mage. She heals her injured ally.

You hurl a squirrel at an Orc. With a satisfying thud, it donks the orc and jumps to the ground. What do you do next? A) Mutate it into the Super Human Hulk Squirrel B) Turn it into a furry suicide bomber C) Breed it into an army of ankle biter rodents

Which would YOU choose?

From the mighty dragon to the humble squirrel, every card in Summoners Fate provides tactical value.

Counter Attack

Each character gets one counter attack per round unless they are:
  1. Backstabbed
  2. Overkilled
  3. Not able to attack (ex: frozen or out of range)



Here, Marauder will counter attack if targeted from the front, knocking Insectoid into spikes. By backstabbing, he avoids a counter attack.

One of the most common questions is around our decision to make Summoners Fate top down. The top down perspective was purposively chosen to ensure that the characters' directional facing has tactical significance. A quick glance at the battlefield provides instant information on which characters pose a counter attack threat and which could potentially be backstabbed. This dimension of directional facing powers advanced tactics that clever players can leverage to outwit even the most steadfast of opponents.
