WindStop Strategy blends tactical RPG combat with visual novel storytelling in a wuxia setting where you rebuild your martial sect after a devastating attack. The game mixes strategy battles with character relationship mechanics and cultivation progression, appealing to fans of Chinese martial arts narratives and narrative-driven strategy games. Note that the English localization remains incomplete, with significant untranslated text and symbols affecting gameplay clarity.

What players are saying

▼ Not recommended 45 hrs
Update: I've definitely put more hours in. I do LIKE the game. Yet it still frusting seeing English Coversation.... More English... Random Chinese... More English.... Random Chineese. It just hurts the story telling so much.

Well currently I am going to wait for the game to get fully translated. Their is LARGE gaps of text that are not in english. So my "Not Recommended" is aimed at those who like reading plot and story, and don't suddenly enjoy it when a conversation goes from English to another language.

In response to the developer comments. I have no real complaints about what has been translated and I can understand what is going on.... just a few times it seems like a handful of lines just revert to what I am guessing is Chinese and then revert back to normal leaving me gaps in the plot I want to enjoy. Obviously great care has gone into creating a world that I would like to be able to appreciate. My recommendations will change when I revisit the game and don't find as much missed.

The game seems like it could be fun if they ever fully translate it. As it stands its its like 40% another language. All skills have some english but are mostly another language. The first cutscene is in another language. I just don't feel like having my phone out to translate ever minute or so and yes there's almost always non english text displayed. Until they translate the rest of the game save your money.

There are still some untranslated texts in the game, but the gameplay is creative (mixed between strategy and RPG), the plot is not too shabby, and the quality overall is well worth your time, with its very cheap price as a bonus. Hopefully the devs will keep it updated with more fixes and DLCs in the future. Recommended for who like cultivation novels and games.
