What is Bionic Dues?
Bionic Dues is a single-player tactical roguelite about stopping a robot uprising before a corporation nukes the city. You choose missions on a city map, explore procedurally generated levels for equipment, and upgrade four mechs drawn from six classes. Your mission choices determine how prepared you are for the robot army's final attack.

- +you want adjustable difficulty with an optional ironman challenge
Not for you if...
- −you prefer real-time action over deliberate, turn-based decisions
- −you want a story-driven adventure rather than equipment tinkering
