Tactical superhero battle game
Capes is a premium strategy game for PC and consoles from developer Spitfire Interactive. It is a tactical action title that boasts turn-based combat and is set in a futuristic world full of heroes. In it, players will form a team in order to take back the city that has been overrun by villains.
Combing the strategic gameplay of XCOM 2: War of the Chosen with the superhero theme of Marvel's Midnight Suns, Capes offers a unique experience that fans of both genres will love.
Heroes and villains
In Capes, the supervillains won and they created a dystopian world wherein the creation of superpowers is forbidden. 20 years on, and a select group of heroes have finally stood up to take back the city. Build a superhero team to take on perilous missions as you slowly make your way to the heart of the enemy and put a stop to their tyranny.
You will need all the help you can get to succeed in your missions in the game. Hence, recruiting heroes with a wide array of powers is crucial as you build a team of four operatives. As you progress and level up your characters, use skill points to upgrade and unlock abilities that will give you an advantage in later battles against tougher enemies.
What's more, there are various hero-specific challenges that you can choose to take on to gain additional skill points and unlock special missions that go into the back story of each hero. Unfortunately, the game requires a minimum of a 64-bit processor and operating system, as well as 8 GB of storage space to accommodate the graphics and numerous game files.
Take back the city
Capes combines themes and gameplay elements from both superhero and strategy games to offer a distinct and engaging experience. There's a healthy roster of heroes to recruit to your team and the turn-based combat makes for a more tactical approach to gameplay. Despite the high system requirements, it's a must-try for enthusiasts seeking a fresh take on tactical superhero battles.
