Indie Spotlight: Fray Now Available on Steam
Simultaneous-turn strategy in a corporate dystopia, now on Steam.
Fray, a simultaneous turn-based strategy game from indie developer Brain Candy, is now available on Steam. It is set in a dystopian future where mega-corporations control Earth’s last resources and a humanity desperate for escape lives out its days in virtual realms. The simultaneous-turn hook is the interesting part: both sides lock in their orders and then watch them play out at once, so you are reading your opponent’s intentions rather than waiting your turn. It is out now for $19.99.
