LeapDrive Tactics

Command Your Fleet in LeapDrive Tactics

LeapDrive Tactics places you in command of a small fleet of ships and drones, defending the remnants of humanity in the Solar system against an ancient alien threat. Developed by SquareDog Studios, this PC-exclusive title is a thrilling turn-based tactics experience that challenges players to strategize and adapt in a desperate bid for survival against the Myrathen probe.

Strategic Depth Across Cosmic Battlefields

Navigate through a variety of diverse battlegrounds, from the intense heat of Mercury’s orbit to the frigid moons of Neptune. Each fight unfolds on a tactical hex grid, allowing for meticulous planning and execution. Players will control the formidable Heavy Cruiser Chicago, alongside combat drones and a mission-specific ship, strategically positioning them for optimal advantage in every encounter.

Choose Your Missions with Impact

In LeapDrive Tactics, decisions matter. Between missions, you'll retreat to Sylvia Station located in the asteroid belt to refit and upgrade The Chicago. The missions offered not only alter your fleet’s capabilities but also carry weight in the overarching campaign. Choose wisely, as your selections can influence the trajectory of humanity's struggle against an ancient adversary.

A Narrative Shaped by Ancient Secrets

Set against a backdrop where humanity teeters on the brink, the game’s story reflects a struggle that began after Earth collapsed into a singularity. Amidst the remnants of civilization, an urgent mission is born—the discovery of the LeapDrive technology brings hope for rekindling the Mars terraforming project and exploring new worlds, like Ross 128b. But activating the LeapDrive also awakened dormant Myrathen probes scattered throughout the galaxy.

Dynamic Gameplay with Procedural and Hand-Crafted Missions

Featuring a blend of procedurally generated and hand-crafted cinematic missions, LeapDrive Tactics offers engaging replayability. Players can encounter various scenarios each time they enter a mission, ensuring that no two engagements feel the same. This design keeps players invested as they unravel a storyline interwoven with challenges and the fate of the survivors.

Discover Life Beyond Earth

As players command their fleet, they will encounter unconventional life forms that challenge human understanding. The advanced, light-based life discovered on Europa not only alters mankind's perception of life but also integrates mathematics with physics. This collaboration heralds critical advancements, but also speaks to the underlying themes of cooperation and conflict amidst survival.

Unlock Upgrades and Enhance Your Strategy

Emphasizing customization, LeapDrive Tactics allows for upgrading The Chicago between missions. Players can choose enhancements that suit their tactical preferences, whether that’s strengthening combat capabilities or increasing defensive integrity. The options available enhance your engagement, empowering players to find their own style amidst the tactical demands of space combat.
