How it feels

A tense, methodical multiplayer strategy game where players issue simultaneous orders and wait for units to act based on initiative.

What players say

Players appreciate the simultaneous-turn system and the lack of random chance, comparing it to chess. However, the game is functionally dead for multiplayer, with no way to challenge friends and a peak player count of four, while the developer has publicly announced they stopped updating and will shut down the game.
