The Expedition Squad

The Expedition Squad is a top-down 2D RPG and action game in which you play a mercenary on investigative and war assignments. You belong to the second expedition team, sent to a mysterious archipelago after the disappearance of the first team, called “Torch.” The expeditions aim to investigate strange genetic mutations captured by drones.

Explore the archipelago

Talk to a variety of characters, some of whom assign missions, and search containers such as shelves and airdrops for resources. You can sell what you do not need and use or store the rest in personal containers. Hunt for food, craft ammunition items and cook meals to survive. Hunger and thirst affect survival without making the gameplay frustrating.

Plan and prepare

Plan your movements and journeys, special operations, assaults on enemy factions, finances and resources. Missions may require different equipment, so manage what you carry. You can upgrade your character’s skills, build a base, forge alliances and trade; how favorable a trade is depends on your merchant skills.

A dynamic weather system and day-and-night cycle change how you experience the game. Expedition vehicles can shelter you during storms or while you are under siege by a rival faction far from your base. Buildings may contain hostile creatures, and enemies can overwhelm you, capture you, rob you and leave you imprisoned by an enemy faction.
