Quar: Infernal Machines is the 1st ever turn-based-strategy game available for the PlayStation®VR, set in the grimmsical world of Alwyd, based on the award-winning Table Top Game system “This Quar’s War” by http://zombiesmith.com

Play through more than a dozen missions with a god’s eye view or go down onto the battlefield to be immersed in the action only VR can provide. Can you lead your Quar to victory?!

Command cavalry to sweep the enemy’s flanks. Send Baeliog armoured tractors forward to shatter hardened defences. Your rhyflers are armed with weapons ranging from the humble Bogen rifle to heavy-automatic shotguns. Rely on your stalwart officers to keep up your troop’s morale and to call in deadly airstrikes. But above all, preserve the honour of your cause!

Quar contains a living, breathing, upgradeable base, fully populated with Quar troops going about their business! Upgrade your mechanic’s bay for better tractors. Upgrade the mess hall (and its chow!) for better morale and get that hanger built so you can call in air-strikes!

Back Story of the game:
It seems the Quar have always been at war.  When the first wandering clans of insect gatherers built their low, mud-walled buildings, it was as much to keep out other Quar as the wild animals.  As they first learned to make tools to get food, they quickly learned to make tools to defend themselves.  The mud walls quickly became fortified citadels, and then city-states.  In five thousand years of civilization, the constants of their culture have been the changing of the seasons and the threat of war.

For the last 700 years the Quar have been waging The Long War to a bloody stalemate that has wracked their world.  But the balance of power is shifting, and Alykinder’s Crusade is attempting to end The Long War by conquering all the Quar nations.  This game takes you to one battle in one theatre of The Long War, between the Crusader Army and the Royalist Coftyran Crymuster.

From the publishers.
“We were approached by Hoplite with the proposal of bringing Quar Infernal Machines to the PlayStation 4 console in Sony Europe regions, and just from looking at the game design document, we knew it would be a project we’d be interested in.  Being our first VR release, whilst also being the first turn-based-strategy game available for PlayStation VR, we are really excited to be bringing this to market.” – Barry Hatch, MD at Funbox Media Ltd

From the developers.
“Working with Funbox as a partner to bring our innovative gaming experience to market allows us to focus on design and Funbox handles the rest.  Quar: Infernal Machines redefines virtual table-top gaming by bringing traditional H.G. Wells “Toy Soldier” experiences to a new generation and bridges the gap between technology and strategy.” – Manny Granillo, MD of Hoplite Research LLC.
