Our take on Tortuga City
The store page foregrounds the setting, weather, professions, exploration, recruitment, and police technology, but the central structure is a race against a 50-day deadline. That countdown makes the game a focused survival campaign rather than an open-ended rebellion simulator.
What is Tortuga City?
Tortuga City is a strategy game about surviving as a wanted turtle in a futuristic city under police siege.
Lead a group of turtles by training soldiers, constructing defenses, assigning professions, and managing resources. Explore dark streets and abandoned areas to locate hidden routes, supplies, equipment, and potential allies. Weather conditions create additional threats that require preparation. The police increase pressure over time and may deploy a secret weapon. The group must find an escape route within 50 days, while recruiting supporters and maintaining its settlement against incoming attacks.
