This was a game I was working on prior to the IGMC entry Blacksword Chronicles. It's quite different from Blacksword as it is not so much story driven and is more of a simulation/management game. Give it a whirl, you may like it.
The current version 0.93 is an Open Beta version that is basically the complete game. I might make some minor adjustments to better balance the game but it is completable. Feel free to leave critiques and comments!
STORY
The Lost Pennisula, a paradise with an abundance of wealth and resources. Centuries ago a mysterious being from the beyond known only as the Tarot God drove out the humans on the Pennisula and conquered it. You play as the heir to the House Magus who has not a spark of the Gift, but is a brilliant tactician. You have been given the impossible task of retaking the Pennisula.

Close@Akki53iky0 Yes, this is on purpose. As mentioned in the story, the leader of your guild is not a strong magic user at all. He or she excels at management skills and not in magic combat, so her Force will never go beyond 1. Your main fighters will be the mages you recruit and train.
@boos405 Thank you!
@EgyLynx I think probably more people beat this but didn't bother to post their results here. You guys should! It's fun to see what teams people use to beat the game.

@mahwii Glad you liked the game! As promised, you are on the list as the second person to beat the game!
Did you get find all the Tomes? Your mages get to learn more spells that way. A pure mages team? Yes, that is quite a challenge! I myself also use mixed teams.
@shayoko Well...I did say this game went in a completely different direction from Blacksword. :p characters have no personality? I plead guilty! Haha. A lot less time was spent on chara design here. Also, my muse refuses to give me any more ideas on this (she has moved on to other projects...) so maybe more development on this in a future time, but not now.
Thank you for the comments! They are most helpful. Puzzle design is one of my weaknesses and I shall have to study more to improve my puzzle designs in the future. From yours as well as other poeple's comments here, it does appear the puzzles need to be improved balance wise.
I recommend maybe after a break you try to finish the game. You're so close!

love mindless battles? love time limits? love bs designs that needlessly prolong the game!?

random thoughts
great start,i love the customization setup
the mapping by room is great but it utterly fails with consistency. just check out the mage room first floor then the church which is supposed to be 3 steps to the left (need to point this out)
i wont be accepting each room is its own dimension there would be no point in building the building if that was the case.
the castle mid right makes no sense. how do you open the top door? whats the point of all the red and green switches?
should be able to switch all assignments to the same thing with one command.
mirage pyramids design is too complicated
the Stasis skill says it paralyzes all enemies but only effects one
:(...i was hoping we would not be treated poorly and not have to go out of are way even more then we have already to fight the tarot god.
after all those battles and side things you still cant just fight him without having do do something? this is just wrong :/
screw the switch bridges before the final boss >.>
^reason i dropped

This game was not what i was expecting.i was expecting to be a head mage or head of mages and not have to do mindless battles.
you were meant to raise your people to do it themselves.
sadly you still control them and fight lots of meaningless battles to get tot eh end of the game.
even ignoring that when you FINALLY get to the area where the main villain is you expect to be treated right and not have to go thru any more bs as you have just went thru. yet you get denied a respectable ending >.>
the plot is battles,the characters have no personality. the game play is dull.
honestly in a different direction this could of had potential.

Yay! You are the first one to beat it and officially declare it! I have reserved your (currently non-existent) Steam key!
Thank you for the suggestions! I will adjust them in the next update. Did you know that mages with only one type of magic are generally stronger or have special abilities? For example Yraerys the Red mage has dual wield.
I usually use PicPick to capture the images. As for images you will need to upload to an image website and link to it using the image button in the reply. Or you can just send the pic to our email: wmrpg.cs@gmail.com and I can put it up for you.
By the way how long did it take you to beat the game?
Did send you a mail.
Didn't stop time, but I used the whole 120 days to learn as much spells as possible.

Sorry, the screenshot failed. Each time I press shift, the event goes on.
But could you make lifewind and life rain stronger?
With lower levels, lifewind heals around 20, with max level 80-120 HP too all,
Life rain 4-6x as lifewind.
My battle Team were Rodner, Bryer, Vaegon, Eyva, Cecil.
I choose Mages with two spells, when possible with white and green. I got two of the final scythes.
I will try the screenshot again with a special programm, but how do I insert it? There is no help for this on this forum.

@Firefly84 Yes, some switches have to be turned on and off. I ran it through once and updated the guide with the order that I used to solve the puzzle.

@Firefly84 Hi. Here's the link to the solve to the tarot temple puzzle as well as some of the other quests:
Mini Strategy Guide
All the switches and related bridges are shown here. The trick is that some switches are off, some are on, while some need to be first turned on then turned off.
Thanks, but you have to turn off switch G! Or the final brigde won't appear.

Thanks for the help.
But now I'm stuck near the end with the warp-puzzle to activate the brigde.
I even defeated the boss and activated the two switch, I think tried all possilities but I cannot make the brigde to the warp field under the pavillion appear without blocking my way. :(

MINI CONTEST AND GIVEAWAY
If you beat the game, please post a screenshot of your ending stat screen, similar to the one below:
You should do it...
1. For no other reason than it's just fun to see what teams everyone used and how training was planned.
2. As a bonus, I will give the first 10 people who post here a steam key to the first paid Steam game Watermark RPG makes, which should be available sometime this decade. :p
Ok, honestly, my team has no idea when we'll be able to release a Steam RPG Maker game. BUT there are definitely plans to do so. It might be the Blacksword sequel or maybe something else. It'll be a gamble, but hey, if it does happen you'll get a free game!

@Firefly84 Thanks for playing! Regarding your questions:
1. For the Swamp: That IS a bug. Thank you for finding it! I have removed the branches and will now upload 0.93. However, the Swamp boss is a bonus boss that you do not have to beat to win. It will give you some extra experience and treasures to help you though.
2. Protection has been fixed. Thank you!
3. For the Star quest: The riddle refers to the three villagers who talk about numbers, their numbers make up the code:
- The Grass (Oleg next to the rows of crops)
- Beasts (Tom Tom near the cows)
- Hills of Red (Dingo near the red tents)

Hi, I have problems in the SWAMP.
The path to the shrine (boss) is blocked by branches, I tried everything, but there's no way around them.
Protection isn't cast on the party but on the user.
Played as far as the STAR-quest. The riddle speaks of 3 not so wise men: Grass, Beasts and Hills of Red. What is the solution? The door just asks for a code.

AND now you make the final boss stronger???
How can you do this to me???
Well, how else could I make you guys pull your hair and gnash your teeth in frustration? :p
Seriously, the last boss only took me 3 tries to beat with a good team. So it's not too bad I don't think. Also there's so many possible teams in this game that maybe you'll come up with a team that will kick its butt super easily....theoretically.
