About the Game

Fortpost – A tactical shooter with base defense in a 5x5 km open world.

Story

Present day. A former military specialist, after years of dangerous service, decides to return home and find a quiet place to rest and figure out what to do next.

Guarding a remote, soon-to-be-decommissioned military base in the desert seemed like the perfect job for that.

But, as always, something went wrong: first, unsettling questions arose about the place, and then events rapidly unfolded—the kind you’d only expect to see in sci-fi movies.

Gameplay

• Hunt down enemies

• Stop them from breaking through your territory

• Explore facilities

• Search for weapons and ammo

• Upgrade your vehicle

• Monitor damage and fuel indicators

• Figure out what’s really going on

• And most importantly—buy time until the army arrives

Tactical layer – Slow enemy advances and control their routes

Resource-driven progression – Loot is essential to continue, repair, and upgrade

Vehicle as a mobile base – Weapons, fast travel, and storage
