Everything We Know About Rogue Command
Rogue Command Story Plot
In the heart of a perilous, procedurally generated galaxy, you assume command of an Engineer of a fledgling spacefaring civilization. Your mission? To survive, expand, and ultimately conquer. However, this universe isn't just a static battleground; it is filled with diverse biomes and shifting weather effects, which players can use to gain the upper hand in skirmishes. Expect everything from foggy landscapes that slow enemy movements to storms that impact powerful foes.
Rogue Command Gameplay
Rogue Command fuses classic real-time strategy (RTS) gameplay with a roguelike twist. Players are tasked with building up futuristic bases, gathering resources, and managing an evolving army, all on procedurally generated maps with unique challenges.
The core loop is straightforward: each mission requires you to construct your base, organize troops, and strategically plan attacks on enemy bases. However, unlike RTS games, each run offers randomized options for buildings and units.
At the end of each mission, you're presented with a choice of blueprint cards, which let you expand your arsenal. These cards introduce new structures and units, like powerful turrets or specialized factories. With over a hundred potential combinations of units, buildings, and upgrades, players can endlessly experiment to adapt to enemies and environmental hazards. These environmental interactions add another layer to the strategy, with map features like slow-moving fog or surprise sandstorms that can be used to your advantage.
For those who find the pace too quick, a slow-motion feature reduces time to 10% speed, allowing for strategic planning and precise control, giving players the breathing room to manage resources and control units under pressure.
For those seeking a true test, players can unlock challenging Ascensions
with new units and abilities. Earned after each victory, these Ascensions ramp up the difficulty to such a degree that even the developers confess to being stumped by certain parts of the game.
Recommend the game to:
⚫︎ People who like Command & Conquer
⚫︎ People who like roguelike games
⚫︎ People who want the strategic depth of RTS games and the unpredictable nature of roguelikes
⚫︎ People who enjoy stylized low-poly graphics and synthwave soundtracks
Is Rogue Command Multiplayer?
No, Rogue Command is a single player game
According to the developers, "We are aware, that people love playing RTS games competitively and cooperatively—this includes us after all. But this is not something we will add to Rogue Command, the whole architecture of the game is built with the goal of making an awesome single player experience."
