OTHERCIDE | The new tactical turn-based game from Lightbulb Crew

Othercide is a dark and challenging tactical game featuring a dynamic turn system allowing you to interrupt and delay actions while putting your master plan in place. Train your Daughters, unlock new abilities, hold back the tide while facing permadeath, or even sacrifice Daughters to avoid failure.

Othercide is a horror-themed turn-based strategy game where the lore and game mechanics are tightly intertwined to deliver a twisted, dark and challenging experience. Enter a brutal world under assault from terrifying creatures from another dimension, hold back the tide with limited resources and endure brutal conditions in visually stunning world.
  • Experience dynamic turn-based combat and a new way to anticipate enemy movements to perform a flawless tactical plan. Using the Initiative Sequence System and unique set of skills, you will be able to interrupt an enemy attack, plan a delayed action that will be triggered later on in the timeline and use reaction skill to respond to any threat.
  • Prepare to suffer and face close calls in our terrifying and ruthless universe. With roguelite features, deadly missions, limited resources and permanent death, there is no room for errors.
  • Level up, unlock new skills and collect memories from the death of your enemies. A limited number of these bonuses can be implemented to your skills to boost their stats. But choose wisely as once implemented, you can’t take them back, unless…
  • …you decide to sacrifice your Daughter!
  • Make dramatic choices and endure with your Daughters traumatic experiences which will make them stronger or weaker.
  • Othercide invites you in a ethereal monochromatic dimension with only dashes of crimson red where your worst nightmares come to life.

A startling art style sublimes a dark universe

The perfect entry point to the game, "Forging Nightmares" gives a background on the key characters and creatures from the Othercide universe: the Mother, her Daughters, and the terrifying Others that you will face off against. Also discussed is the art style that sets Othercide apart and gives a unique look and feel, and the real-world inspirations for the characters and situations of this disturbing reality. Influences are pulled from Japanese and western sources, as well as the real life of art director Alexandre Chaudret.


s. As we head towards the encounter with Suffering, the webseries continues. Episode two, “Fighting Shadows”, explains the origins of Othercide’s unique combat that has morphed the traditional turn-based system into the Dynamic Timeline System. This episode also gives a look at the many abilities of your daughters - plus how to combo them.

. Today’s Gameplay Overview Trailer shows off exclusive footage, taking a deep dive into the tactical combat and progression systems that make up this dark indie gem.

Dynamic Timeline System: set up combos and manipulate foes

In Othercide, the unique Dynamic Timeline System is at the core of every battle. Rather than simply controlling where and what your units do, you will also manipulate when things happen. This can be used in many ways, from interrupting an enemy attack before it even occurs, to unleashing a devastating series of combos. Death will inevitably take you. Healing Daughters requires the sacrifice of another, and your forces cannot withstand the onslaught of Suffering forever. However, there is hope: each failed run opens up new game-changing abilities, options and opportunities for the next attempt.


Grow in power and learn attack patterns to defeat the deadliest foes

Defeating each massive boss, inspired by some of humanity’s worst nightmares, is a herculean task. Each epic encounter will push you and your army of Daughters to the limit. You’ll need to anticipate deadly abilities, learn intricate attack patterns and certainly make sacrifices in your pursuit of victory. In Othercide, every kill and action have a chance to unlock a Memory, earning new gameplay bonuses and story fragments, though these bosses offer some truly game-changing effects. Only by carrying over what you’ve learned and earned will you conquer Suffering once and for all.
