Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players seeking an open-ended campaign may reach the endpoint after the stated 26 missions and up to 10 hours of play
- Players who want real-time combat may bounce off the turn-based battle structure
- Players looking for a roguelike with repeated randomized runs may find the campaign structure too fixed
Our take on Augmented Empire
Players looking for real-time action will hit the main wall when encounters switch to turn-based squad command. Those expecting a long campaign may also stop at the stated scope of 26 missions and up to 10 hours of gameplay.
What is Augmented Empire?
Set in New Savannah in 2058, Augmented Empire is a turn-based RPG about a rebellion against a corrupt elite.
