About Othercide

Othercide casts you as humanity's last hope in a stark, black-and-white struggle against Suffering and death. You command the Daughters, echoes of the greatest warrior who ever lived, and they alone stand between the world and its ruin. Leading them into battle demands every ounce of skill you can summon, because your performance in combat directly determines their fate, shaping their abilities and their personalities.

The fighting plays out as an intricate dance of dramatic actions and counters. You plan ahead and chain abilities together to outsmart your enemies, weighing brutal choices such as sacrificing one Daughter to heal another. Survivors grow stronger from these decisions, steeling themselves for the battles to come, while epic boss encounters pit you against the sources of Suffering, dread creatures drawn from the worst of humanity's crimes against itself.

The experience is built around a cycle of struggle and perseverance captured in its refrain: you will fight, you will fail, and you will rise again. As an indie strategy game on PC, Othercide pairs its striking monochrome aesthetic with punishing, tactical combat, asking you to descend into darkness and lead your army of Daughters through defeat toward eventual triumph.
