Capes King City Edition

Capes is a turn-based superhero strategy game set in a dystopian city ruled by supervillains. They won twenty years ago and made developing superpowers a crime; now you build a team of heroes and fight to take the city back through campaign and patrol missions.

The city and its heroes

Recruit heroes with distinct powers and abilities. Each plays differently, so you need to learn how to use their abilities and adapt your approach to each one. As heroes grow more powerful in combat, they can unleash their personal, tide-turning Ultimates.

Turn-based combat

Take up to four heroes into each mission. Positioning and team-ups shape your tactics: every hero gains a unique team-up ability from each ally, creating new ways to use their powers against different enemies and supervillains. Combat does not rely on random numbers or hiding behind cover, and superpowers do not make heroes invulnerable; your choices can decide whether a mission ends in victory or defeat.

Missions and progression

Follow the campaign or explore patrol and side missions. Completing objectives and challenges earns Skill Points, which you spend to unlock heroes’ powers. Leveling up also grants access to new abilities and powerful upgrades.

During missions, you can complete collections of hero-specific challenges to earn bonus Skill Points and unlock optional missions. These optional missions reveal more about each hero’s life.
