Determinance is a Fantasy Tactical Action Game developed by Mode 7 Games
7 out of 10
The Ancient Race of Twelve needs a new Hero! In a world of fantasy and tactical action you have responded to the call.
As one of the Twelve, you enter into deadly and tactical sword combat. Imitate the heroic fighting style of Crouching Tiger, Sleeping Dragon by flying about the large combat landscape. Watch your cloak flutter in the breeze as you fly.
Move your mouse, swing the sword, duel to the death! Determinance is a single and multiplayer sword-fighting PC title. The movement of the mouse corresponds directly to the movement of the sword, so only your skill with a blade matters. Slash wildly or creep in for a stealthy strike - choices are to be made!
Adjusting the sword determines how the character swings. Pointing the sword straight-forward and aiming it as far down as the character's wrist, will give players a more classical fencing style. Keeping the sword aimed downwards and slightly behind the character allows players to execute the skillfully adept cuts and cross slashes from some samurai techniques.
Battle in three dimensions. Strike from below against unaware opponents. Sweep and loop around to evade their attacks. Attacks to striking specific body parts will impact how much damage is dished out. Conjoining spinning thrusts while flying straight into an opponent renders devastating results. Explore great depth of possibilities.
