If you like strategy, chances are you also like tactics. If you enjoy modern RTS games, you may get a kick out of discovering traditional roguelikes. If you love ordering around broad-shouldered Vikings, you may also like to control every careful step of a bad-ass space-marine. Yeah... I've got nothing. It's a low-fantasy RTS bundled with a horror/Sci-Fi roguelike. Because after all, why wouldn't you want to try something different?

Jupiter Hell is a turn-based shooter from the depths of cosmic hell, built on a classic roguelike framework updated with modern 3d graphics. Rip and tear zombies, demons, and heavy metal monstrosities with chainguns and chainsaws. Like chess... with shotguns!

If you already own one, you can get the other at an extra 10% discount (on top of any other discounts that might be active at the time). Enjoy!
