What is REDCON?

This 2D, single-player strategy game pits artillery fortresses against each other in real-time battles, with a pause option for issuing orders. You arrange weapons and facilities, target enemy systems, and direct crew to repair damage while managing ammunition, power, and manpower. In a steampunk world where the First World War never ended, you lead a campaign against a traitor general.

For you if...

  • +you like pausing battles to plan multiple orders
  • +you enjoy bleak steampunk war settings

Not for you if...

  • −you want multiplayer matches instead of a solo campaign
  • −you prefer forgiving battles with little trial and error
