Important: please note that previous save games will not work with the new version, as both the save game data, and the data which is initialised at the start of a game has been changed. If you want to continue playing on your existing save for now, please delay the update.

Vigilantes Linux Depot [3.18 G]
Inspired by the classic turn based strategies of the 90s, Vigilantes is a compelling, crime themed, turn based tactical RPG with an old school heart. Assume the role of Sam Contino, an idealist dragged down the rabbit hole of vigilantism after intervening in a violent mugging. In Sam's crusade against crime in the declining city of Reiker, you will:
- Lead a team of hardboiled Vigilantes in tense, turn based tactical combat against 3 distinct gangs.
- Take down criminals with bone shattering melee attacks, a variety of firearms, and explosives.
- Run surveillance operations to locate the criminal threat.
- Develop your character with the in-depth UPLIFT system.
- Locate and recruit other vigilantes operating in Reiker City.
- Purchase or liberate a wide variety of weapons and equipment.
- Craft special items, such as high damage, hotloaded ammo, armour, and advanced medical items.
- Experience a compelling story, supported by quality artwork and voice acting.
Tense, Tactical, Turn Based Combat
Challenge your tactical abilities by engaging an overwhelming enemy in tense, turn based combat. Take down criminals with choreographed, bone breaking hand to hand combat, and melee weapons ranging from a ball peen hammer to a deadly katana. If you're more of a gunslinger, stick to cover and trade lead with your foes using pistols, close range burst fire SMGs, shotguns, assault and precision rifles. If things get too hectic you can always break out the explosives...Deep Character Development
Vigilantes allows you to customise your team to your play-style. The UPLIFT character system is comprised of 6 core stats, nine crime-fighting skills, and a wide variety of game changing perks. With the UPLIFT system, character level is increased by using skills, rather than by gaining XP. Every time you gain a level, you gain an additional stat point to allocate.Know Thine Enemy
Before launching tactical missions, you must run surveillance operations to locate criminal activity. Low level criminal activity can be located with limited surveillance, but taking down grunts isn't going to get you anywhere. In order to put a gang out of commission, you must locate and dismantle well-hidden facilities and the gang's leadership.Face An Overwhelming Enemy
Always out-numbered, often out-gunned, you must adapt to face over fifteen enemy types across three criminal gangs: the numerous, melee orientated, cult-like Church of the Final Exodus, the Survivalists, an elite paramilitary group of highly trained shooters, which more closely resemble an army than a street gang, and the Mafia, a balanced, insidious enemy, which excels at keeping its activities hidden. Trade punches with heavyweight Mafia Enforcers, outmanoeuvre stalking Survivalist Sharpshooters, and take down crazed, explosive wielding, Church of the Final Exodus Fanatics.Make Friends!
You don't have to take on the criminal underworld alone. A number of allies can be found on the dark streets of Reiker, including hard-boiled private eye, Ray Case, Reiker City Police Lieutenant Emilia De Soto, and Elena Furey, who is hunting down Survivalists for reasons of her own. Once found, allies can be called in to help in tactical missions. You can find a voiced introduction video for each of these allies in the videos section, at the top of the page.Tools Of The Trade
Wield baseball bats, fire axes, close range, burst fire SMGs, precision rifles, shotguns, incendiary grenades, smoke grenades. Kit out your team with crafted armour, advanced medical devices, and create specialised hot-loaded ammunition which causes increased damage. Don't forget to repair your equipment after combat, to prevent firearms jamming, melee weapons breaking, and to maintain the protective qualities of your armour.MINIMAL SETUP
