What is Capes?

This single-player, grid-based tactics game takes place in a city ruled by supervillains, where developing superpowers is illegal. You bring up to four heroes into campaign and patrol missions, positioning them and combining their powers in turn-based combat. Mission objectives and challenges earn skill points for ability upgrades.

  • +you like finding combinations between different heroes' powers
  • +you enjoy replaying missions to complete optional challenges

Not for you if...

  • −you want to create and customize your own superhero
