Feed the Scorchpot

Feed the Scorchpot is a brand-new turn-based strategy game that has 100% positive reviews on Steam. It combines the medieval high fantasy stylings of Game of Thrones with the hexagonal board and turn-based deckbuilding strategy tactics of Settlers of Catan, and is available to play now for $15, discounted at 20% off until August 27.

According to the game's developers, players strike a bargain with a demanding dragon, receiving 20 years of protection for their island in exchange for keeping the beast properly fed throughout that period. Each year functions like another round, with difficulty increasing as time passes, and with players rolling dice to work on the island, harvest ingredients, construct buildings, and combine resources into more and more elaborate meals.

Game Overview

The game has a unique mix of randomized hexagonal map tiles, resource production tied to dice rolls, and a cooperative trading system. Players can build an interconnected scoring engine across the board, with farms, shrines, harbors, and other structures feeding into one another. There are over 50 buildings to experiment with, and every run develops differently as the dragon becomes hungrier and more selective with each passing year.

Features and Reviews

One of the key features of Feed the Scorchpot is its strong push-your-luck roguelike element, where one disastrous dish can end an otherwise successful run. The game has been praised by players, who describe it as an awesome blend of multiple genres, and a testament to the game's addictive gameplay loop. As reported by Screenrant, players have described the game as a Balatro meets Catan mash-up that feels like a sped up single player version of Catan but then throw in a bunch of multipliers that make you scream with delight as you just barely make it through to the next round.
