City of the Shroud, a real-time tactical RPG just recently launched on Steam and it turns out it's had a Linux demo build for testing for a long time, with hardly anyone stepping up to check it out.

This post on Steam, open since October 2016 seemed to have no one reply to it until June this year. Now it's actually getting some attention, the developer has actually put up a new build (make sure to use the newer build in that later post). To be clear, you don't need to own it to test it, as it's an external demo download.

I've tested the newer version and it does seem to work quite nicely, the only other user report currently also claims it works perfectly too. Hopefully with more people checking it out, they can officially support a Linux version.

Game features:

The story is a living episodic campaign: in each chapter, every player's actions impact how the world, changing how the story unfolds for the entire community in the next chapter

4 chapters: each chapter is crafted based on the cumulative influence of every player's choices and actions from the previous episodes

Real-time, combo-based battle system: think on your feet and chain your attacks together to defeat your opponents

Play your way: an optional “Wait Mode” pauses the action while you enter combos, and you can choose to slow down or speed up the gameplay to suit your playstyle

Multiple difficulty options let you choose between focusing on narrative and testing your tactical prowess

Online PVP multiplayer

Deep combo and stat system lets you customize your team to suit your playstyle

A distinctive world, beautifully realized in 2D and 3D

Find it on Humble Store and Steam. I would hold off on purchasing until it has a full build that's officially out for Linux.
