Hostile Takeover v0.6717

Hostile Takeover is a tactical turn-based game where you command a small team of contractors hired by mysterious corporate suits to take on seemingly impossible missions against dominant megacorporations. Each contractor is equipped with custom cybernetics that grant them a wide range of abilities, all represented by action cards. These cards dictate combat actions such as movement, attacking, defending, and unleashing special abilities.

A unique twist in the game is its power system. Instead of a traditional mana resource, playing each card costs power, and each round your team’s power resets to zero. However, every card not only has a cost but also provides a gain, which can be converted into extra power when you choose to discard it. This mechanic forces you to balance your team’s power allocation each round and decide whether to concentrate firepower on one contractor with the best draws or to designate a character as a recycler to fuel their offensive potential.

Each character in Hostile Takeover belongs to a different class, and their decks are built from class-specific cards. Some classes might lean on shields to mitigate incoming damage, while others can vanish from the battlefield to dodge enemy attacks, forcing foes to target someone else. This diversity encourages you to experiment with different strategies depending on the strengths and tactical roles of your team members.

Beyond combat, the game features deep character progression as you encounter various events, upgrade paths, and black market shops while infiltrating corporate facilities. Cybernetic upgrades, in particular, provide always-active enhancements that can fundamentally change a character’s playstyle. Experimenting with different upgrades and finding synergistic combinations becomes a major part of mastering the game.

The game’s levels are constructed by blending handcrafted environments with procedural generation. This results in ever-changing layouts, hazards, and events that keep each run fresh and unpredictable. While the overall structure may be random-ish, enemy encounters and combat maps are thoughtfully designed to maintain fun and challenge throughout your experience in Hostile Takeover.
