In a dystopian future, you are a stateless outcast surviving on scraps from abandoned alien ships and stations. A rumored alien wreck hidden in the Deep Sky sector could be your ticket to citizenship and a comfortable life on a habitable planet. To find it, you recruit up to three mercenaries as a squad and explore wrecks from a scavenger base, looting for gear and clues and meeting traders and other inhabitants along the way.
The game mixes turn-based strategy with RPG elements, tactical card battles and roguelike features, all in a retro-futuristic comic-book style. Single-player with full controller support, it suits players who like squad building, gear upgrades and card-driven fights.
