Skygard Arena: An Engaging Arena-based Strategy Game set on Floating Islands

Skygard Arena is an innovative, arena-based strategy game that offers a unique twist on the genre. Set in a vibrant world that’s been shattered by a cataclylical event and now consists of floating fragments suspended in the skies - named Skygard - this game offers players an immersive and robust gaming experience.

Five distinct factions exist in Skygard, continually battling for resources while living on the floating shards. However, their disputes are settled not through incessant warfare, but by pitting their champions against each other in an ancient tournament. This time, a recently discovered ancient crown acts as the grand championship prize - but will this artifact bring unity and peace among the factions or stir up new mysteries and changes in Skygard?

Skygard Arena boasts a diverse roster of 9 unique champions, each equipped with their distinctive play style, skills, and passive abilities. Each champion can be customized further with two alternative ‘personas’, having distinct appearances and gameplay mechanics. Players also have the option to outfit their champions with powerful artifacts that boost their stats or offer unique passives.

The game incorporates a rich strategic depth - every turn lets the players combine multiple actions that range from using primary, secondary, and ultimate skills to repositioning their champions. The game’s environment induces a tactical approach, whether through using movement points or skills or teleporting between two controlled pillars.

Skygard Arena provides a story-driven campaign experience, following the five factions’ epic encounters battling for Skygard’s future. The first release includes the initial three chapters, comprising 16 missions, with future updates promised extensively.

The battles in the game are short and intense. Players can swiftly engage in 20-minute duels, assembling their teams, and strategizing to outsmart the opposition. The road to victory can be achieved either by eliminating champions and capturing pillars or by launching a swift attack on the opponent’s main pillar.

The developers affirm fairness in their PvP mode, offering split progression systems and no RNG effects, coupled with zero microtransactions. All champions, personas, and artifacts can be unlocked through gameplay, emphasizing skill and strategy over luck or in-game purchases.

Moreover, players can opt for a solo experience against the game’s in-house developed AIs, which vary from a Classic AI to an Experimental AI reminiscent of chess engines, planning several moves in advance.

Skygard Arena is an evolving game, with plans in place for regular updates, bug fixes, and content additions. Community involvement is encouraged, with developers actively seeking player feedback, seen evident in the establishment of an official Skygard Arena Discord channel.

In conclusion, Skygard Arena offers a promising, rich, and immersive gaming experience for anyone who enjoys strategy and tactics fused with engaging narratives and a lush, vibrant environment. With its emphasis on player skill, deep strategy components, and dedication to evolving content and community interaction, this game is an exciting addition to the arena-based strategy genre.
