Broken Lines - Making our way to the Press
Did you know that if you play Broken Lines in specific difficulty modes, permadeath is a feature that you will have to watch out for?
We have three different difficulty modes: easy, normal, and hard. If you play normal and hard mode, permadeath is enabled. In normal mode, every unit can be revived once per game day, the first time that they go down they can be revived, however, the second time will result in a permanent death if they die a second time, then youve lost that unit for good. Can you guess what hard mode means? If you guessed that it means one death results in permadeath, then youre right! Do keep in mind that this is not the only way to lose units, if youre not careful, the decisions made in-game can cause them to desert. Well have more on that next week!
Development on Broken Lines has been going very smoothly and were on track to release the game in Q1 of 2020. As we are getting closer to our release, we (PortaPlay and Super.com) are starting to work with several well-known gaming sites to get the hype train rolling Are you interested in what is being written about us?

This weeks featured bug was a very strange one. One of the squad members decided to lie flat on the ground and try to sneak up on a group of enemies in that position. Clearly startled by such an insane tactic, one of the soldiers decided that he had enough and slowly backed away!

The squad has crash-landed behind enemy lines, in the heart of Eastern Europe. With no officers, no leaders, and no intel, they must find an unbreakable resolve if they are to survive.
But with only their training and instincts to guide them, survival becomes a difficult goal. First of all, they need to learn to work together to have any hope of coping with the challenges ahead.
Each survivor has their own views on what to do, and their own principles on what is acceptable. Some want to investigate what caused their crash, others want to stay low and avoid detection by the enemy. There are even whispers of desertion.
It is your task to be the unseeing hand that will guide this ragtag group of soldiers through their struggles. Make your decisions wisely, for they will have real consequences on the fates of the survivors.
- Tactical RPG with diverse characters. Experience the story through the eyes of each soldier as they fight for survival in an alternative WW2 setting.
- Turn-based planning with simultaneous execution (WeGo turn-based gameplay)
- Authentic tactical choices: suppression, destructible cover, realistic ballistics, and camouflage are at your disposal.
- Rogue-like campaign structured with different narrative paths, resources, and permadeath.
- A challenge for even the most experienced gamer. A far-reaching moral system means that the soldiers may desert at any moment if you prove to be incompetent.
- An emotional story, tense atmosphere, and multiple endings based on the decisions that you make.
“Victory at all costs, victory in spite of all terror, victory however long and hard the road may
be; for without victory, there is no survival.”
― Winston Churchill
