Twilight Wars Declares War on Corporate Power in a Bold Tactical Cyberpunk Debut
Assemble your team and show capitalism who's boss!
Twilight Wars, a gritty tactical cyberpunk dungeon crawler, makes its debut during the Shacknews Indie Showcase and Turn-Based Thursday Fest. Recruit a team of wildly unique operatives, plan your strategy, and pull off dangerous missions by the skin of your teeth in this high-stakes, turn-based adventure.
In Twilight Wars, players lead a squad of morally complex badasses on a mission to dismantle ruthless mega-corporations from the inside out. Navigate a variety of mission types, master deep team-building tactics, and unravel a rich, dark narrative where every choice matters. The personalities of your agents affect team dynamics, forcing players to make difficult decisions-many of which shape the story’s outcome and lead to multiple possible endings.
But it’s not all firefights and infiltration. Players will also customize their underground base of operations, AAA. This hideout serves as a critical hub where agents can heal, train, and even return from the dead. Building and upgrading rooms and modules is essential for surviving the game’s escalating threats.
From hostage rescues to complex multi-squad operations, each mission demands careful planning and the right mix of skills. Only through smart team-building and strategic synergy can players hope to bring down the forces of unchecked corporate power.
