'Frozen Synapse' - New Screens

by Rainier on May 22, 2011 @ 6:43 p.m. PDT

Frozen Synapse is a top-down simultaneous-turn-based tactical game set in the near-future, that focuses on knife-edge tactical decisions: matches between opposing squads are quick, intense battles of wits rather than slow-burn strategic epics.

Gameplay in Frozen Synapse focuses on knife-edge tactical decisions: matches between opposing squads are quick, intense battles of wits rather than slow-burn strategic epics. The emphasis is on tactical competence rather than memorising unit trees or hoarding resources. We're calling it"bite-sized hardcore strategy" because we think that sounds fantastic.

You've patched into the enemy's security system: now prepare to make your plan. Frozen Synapse is a simultaneous turn-based game set in the near-future. Both multi-player and single-player game modes will be available, with the emphasis on instant tactical gratification and outwitting your opponent. An atmospheric top-down view of your squad will enable you to craft the perfect strategy and then watch with unfettered glee as your small men wreak unspeakable trauma upon other small men once you hit the "execute" button.


Key Features:

  • A variety of multiplayer game modes
  • "Every Turn Counts" gameplay - in any given turn power can shift if you make the right tactical decisions
  • Unique scoring technique - see your performance against hundreds of opponents on the same mission
  • Fully destructible terrain - create the perfect cover with a well-placed explosive
To get 30% off the pre-order, all human beings have to do is use the code STANCHER during the order process.
