Void War is a strategy game set in a dark science-fiction universe. It features additional roguelike elements and allows us to command a spaceship. It was strongly inspired by the game FTL: Faster Than Light and this is the debut project of the independent Tundra studio.

Gameplay

In Void War, we play as a chosen and configurable commander of a spaceship, who is searching for the legendary Crypt of Souls. For this purpose, we visit six sectors, planning the travel route thanks to the advance information about points of interest, such as merchants or repair stations.

The battles are randomly generated and take place in real-time. They involve dismantling of enemy ships and boarding actions. We fend off attacks from cultists or space pirates and we command a crew divided into factions with unique characteristics. We equip them with weapons, armor and operational materials, and also adapt thanks to psychic powers. Our ship, apart from weaponry, shields and life systems, may also have gravity field generators or repulsion weapons.
