Cortex Command vs Devastation

In a distant future, humanity has amputated its bodies, leaving only brains that remotely pilot machines. As the brain of a fledgling gold‑mining company, you switch between expendable bodies, harvest resources, and build an army while staying safe in your bunker. The fully destructible terrain, programmable AI puppets, and split‑screen co‑op let you explore, fight, and out‑smart rivals on an alien planet, all delivered via the orbital TradeStar marketplace.

In 2075 humanity lives under the iron grip of Grathius Inc., a corrupt mega‑corporation that resurrects its soldiers with nano‑cloning technology. As Flynn Haskell, you lead a rag‑tag band of rebels across ruined cities from San Francisco to Taiwan and Japan, battling immortal troops and uncovering the truth behind the cloning devices. The game blends first‑person shooting, tactical strategy and a dark sci‑fi narrative, letting you recruit allies like Eve the scientist and Duffy the escape artist while sabotaging Grathius’ plans. Experience a gritty, post‑World‑War‑II‑Europe aesthetic on Linux and PC, with a single‑player campaign that rewards careful planning and relentless firepower.
