Valhalla features a unique turn-based combat system set on a hexagonal board. Players can utilize up to three Veras in exciting 1 player vs 1 player battles, employing strategy, prediction, and their well-trained Veras to achieve victory.

The Hexagonal Tile Board

Battles take place in a field of Hexagonal Tiles arranged in the shape of a hexagon. Opposing Veras start at opposite sides of the field and can move freely on it to fight.

As the game goes on, the field gradually shrinks, ****forcing Veras into close-quarters combat.

Draws can occur when both sides run out of standing Veras on the same turn, or if the turn timer runs out.

Phases of a Turn

Action Staging Phase

In the first half of every turn, players select (stage) the actions of all their Veras. Each Vera can perform one action, such as use an ability, move, use an item, or, if all else fails, skip their turn. After confirming the Vera action(s), the next phase will initiate.

Whenever you fight using multiple Veras, you can switch between them freely and plan your turn effectively!

Action Unraveling Phase

Once both sides have confirmed their actions, they relinquish control and the action unfolds. In this phase all Vera actions are performed, or unraveled rather, in a specific order.

Simplified Order:

• Movement → Abilities → Status Effect Application.

The full order (including all possible actions) is:

• Taming → Tile & Object Manipulation → Defensive Abilities → Movement → Abilities that Move and Damage simultaneously → Items → Ability Object Movement → Common Damage Abilities → Map shrinking → Status Effect Application
