About the game
Rogue Angels is a character-driven solo or co-op Sci-Fi adventure for 1-4 players. The game blends engaging narrative with impactful choices leading to multiple paths through various missions and personal journeys. Rogue Angels merges tactical combat with fluent turns and action management with asymmetric abilities, where you fight behavior-driven enemies through combined card and dice play. The experience is much more than hack'n'slash, as Rogue Angels takes you through stealth missions, search and rescue, infiltration, evacuations, sabotage and much more. Many missions allow for flexible player approaches and adaptation. Throughout your journey the decisions you make will permanently shape your character's personality and their relationship with other individuals, opening and closing possible paths along the way. Rogue Angels offers individual difficulty settings allowing players an experience best suited for their level. Set in the Burning Suns universe, you will be travelling a diverse galaxy and locations with various factions all vying for their way of life. You get the opportunity to become a hero, shield civilians from conflicts, defend your spaceship from boarding enemies, and help save the galaxy. But be careful, as your team will be tested in numerous scenarios and face difficult choices in and outside of combat, and you will not be offered a second chance. As a leader you must be willing to sacrifice everything and your legacy to bring peace to the many species of the Burning Suns. —description from the designer
