Massive Chalice is a single player turn-based tactics game within a multi-generational strategy campaign where you must unite your kingdom under a powerful dynasty as an immortal King or Queen to eliminate the demonic threat, and reforge the Massive Chalice. An immortal ruler is charged with defending their kingdom against the Cadence, a monstrous invading force whose very touch is lethal and whose passage leaves magical corruption behind. Guided by the sentient artifact known as the Massive Chalice, the ruler learns the Chalice needs three centuries to gather the power required to cleanse the land, and cannot leave the palace to fight. Instead they must dispatch attuned heroes into battle and, across the long generations, arrange marriages and bloodlines so that new champions are born to carry on the war until the Chalice is ready.

Answered from what people have written, never made up: a verdict, how much when it's a matter of degree, and the sentences that say so, quoted with their names. Reviews here first, then TMDB's reviews and the title's Wikipedia plot and reception. If nothing settles it, you can put it to the curators.
