Culture Warz: Tactics

So, here's the deal: a global conspiracy weaponized social media and turned (almost) everyone into a mindless NPC. Yes, those kinds of NPCs. The ones who just repeat the same dialogue loop about awful trends and bad opinions. The vibes are... terrible.

About the Game

So, here's the deal: a global conspiracy weaponized social media and turned (almost) everyone into a mindless NPC. Yes, those kinds of NPCs. The ones who just repeat the same dialogue loop about awful trends and bad opinions. The vibes are... terrible.

You command the last free-thinkers: an "elite" (questionable) resistance force of Chads. Your impossible mission? Get everyone to log off.

This is a grid-based, turn-based strategy game where every move is a new tactical puzzle. You'll have to defend the Jammers-glorified signal blockers that are humanity's only defense against the psychic hive-mind (and the endless stream of cringe).

And look, sometimes you'll mess up. Badly. That's why we included a rewind button. Correct your 'tactical oopsies' and find the perfect solution. No one has to know you tried to melee your own guy.

Gather your squad, find a slightly better baseball bat, and fight your way to the Facepalm Tower (yes, really) to save humanity from itself.

Key Features:

  • Protect the Jammers: Those civilian Jammers are the only things stopping the horde from posting more cringe. Keep them safe. Please. (Friendly fire is not friendly).

  • Think Real Hard (Turn-Based): No rush. Stare at the grid. Analyze the NPCs. Have a snack. Then execute your flawless 5D chess move.

  • The "Tactical Oopsie" Button: Accidentally walk into a mob? Shoot your best, Chad, in the back? Hit rewind, pretend it never happened, and try something that isn't that.

  • Assemble Some Guys: Find powerful new gear (like a really nice bat) and recruit 11 unique Chads. They all have distinct abilities and, presumably, very strong opinions on pineapple pizza.

  • Make Your Chads Slightly Less Bad: Level 'em up, hone their special skills, and maybe they'll stop missing shots. (No promises).

  • A Truly Alarming Amount of Weapons: Seriously, who left over 20 different guns and blunt objects lying around? Well, finders keepers.

  • Fight 30+ Flavors of "Ugh": Adapt your tactics to overcome a diverse horde of over 30 different enemy types, from the 'Well, Actually' foot-soldier to 8 powerful bosses. They're all very cross.

  • Achieve Online Validation: Prove you're the real tactical genius by getting your name at the top of the leaderboards. Go on. You've earned it.

  • A 45-Level Headache: Fight your way across a corrupted Zoo (the animals are fine, just very opinionated) Museum, and moe all to reach the final confrontation at the... Facepalm Tower. We're not sorry.
