Floor 13: Deep State

Floor 13: Deep State is an unusual strategy game in which we play the role of the head of an intelligence agency, taking decisions that shape the organisation's further steps and thus the situation in the world (and above all in London and the United Kingdom). The game was developed by the independent studio Oversight Productions and is directly inspired by Floor 13 from the 1990s. The publisher is Humble Games.
