About Delphyq
Delphyq is a real-time strategy and tactics game that puts you in a “mastermind” position where you analyze the situation, choose the missions, evaluate the available resources, gather intel, and plan the attack. However, planning is nothing without tactical execution, and in Delphyq, micro managing the actions of your entire team during combat is critical. Giving instructions to each of your units in a squad and coordinating their actions are made possible by the game’s “Live/Pause” mechanics. This allows for edge-of-your-seat action where you can act and react in any given situation at any given time. As the mastermind in Delphyq, you determine your fate.

Set in an alternative Universe where corporations rule and will stop at nothing to maintain the status quo, you lead a team of unique individuals, bonded together by a common philosophy, to go against the fabric of society they live in.

The strategy and tactics in Delphyq is similar to playing chess. You have to accomplish smaller missions in order to achieve your main goal of overcoming the opposition. In chess you achieve this through various opening strategies. In Delphyq, you choose the missions with the right objectives that are suitable for your unique approach to set yourself up in preparation for the main mission. Then you consider the available pieces at your disposal. Like in chess, your units in Delphyq have their own unique capabilities. Some of them are fast, quick to the trigger, and deadly in close quarters. Some of them are slow, have a longer effective weapon range, and deal tremendous amount of damage. You learn what they're capable of, and it's up to you to put them in their proper positions to attack and deal damage effectively and penetrate the depths of the enemy territory to capture your objective.
