Frozen Synapse 2
Strategy 13 September 2018
A full-fledged continuation of a science-fiction turn-based strategy developed by Mode 7 Games. In its premise, Frozen Synapse 2 doesn’t differ much from what its predecessor offered, and focuses on combat using small units, emphasizing strategic planning. The main distinguishing element of the game (and the whole series) is the fact that the encounters are turn-based, but the players make their moves simultaneously, rather than alternately. This forces a completely different approach from the players, and keeps them on their toes when anticipating the next move of their enemy. In contrast to its predecessor, Frozen Synapse 2 has a much more open world, directly resulting in bigger maps, which has an utmost impact on the strategic layer of the game. The whole game is seen from a good old top-down view, and introduces a similar stern visual style, with a rather cold color palette.
Frozen Synapse: Prime
Strategy 23 September 2014
Refreshed version of the tactical strategy of 2011, in which we lead an army of rebels who want to crack down on the governments of a powerful corporation. The game takes place in a synchronous turn-based system, where players make their moves at the same time. Compared to the original version, virtually all of the mechanics and bindings of the game were created anew to make it even more tactical and visually attractive.

Strategy 26 May 2011
An innovative war game focused on the clashes of small troops. Battles are played in turn-based system, but in contrast to typical productions of this type, orders of both sides are executed simultaneously. Such a solution means that it is not enough to react to the opponent's movements, but instead you have to learn to predict them.
