About This Game

Grab your axes and call upon the All-Father!

Slay The Saxons is a fast-paced, tactical rogue-lite featuring a colorful cast of unhinged northmen cracking Saxon skulls. Position your warband on a compact isometric grid to out-maneuver, displace, and dismantle the dim-witted but dangerous Saxon Host. 

Can you guide your warband through relentless waves of professional soldiers, fanatical zealots, Saxon lords and swamp witches?

Prepare, Customize, and Progress!

Build broken synergies! Draft game-changing randomized abilities, unlock passive traits, and recruit fresh faces to complement your team's tactical architecture. Will you build a defensive shield wall or an aggressive, high-mobility flanking engine? The choices are entirely yours, and no two runs are ever the same.
