All Walls Must Fall - A Tech-Noir Tactics Game is now available for free
on
Itch.io and
Steam, offering a tactical RPG for Windows, macOS, and Linux (thanks
Rock Paper Shotgun via Neutronbeam). Developer
inbetweengames explains that six years after its debut the game is now
permanently free for everyone. Here's a refresher on this chance to re-heat the
Cold War:
Berlin, November 2089: The Cold War never ended. For 150 years
both sides have used time manipulation technology to observe and counter each
other’s every move. Now this fragile state of affairs is approaching a breaking
point, as a rogue nuclear strike will send the world into turmoil. Both sides
have scrambled to send agents back in time to find who is behind the attack and
how to prevent it. If they fail, the whole world will turn to ash, forever.
All Walls Must Fall is an isometric tactics game where actions happen to the
pulsing beat of the music. You control time travelling secret agents as they
jump and loop through a single night in the city of Berlin. Using a pausable
real-time system, carefully plan your decisions and use powerful time
manipulation abilities to your advantage, as you carry out your mission in the
shadows or in plain sight. Levels are procedurally recombined, giving All Walls
Must Fall a highly replayable campaign structure, while still offering
individually crafted components and
set-pieces.
