We Are The Caretakers
We Are The Caretakers delivers a gripping sci-fi strategy RPG experience through a 23-mission campaign that blends squad-building mechanics with deep narrative choices. Players unite a clandestine group of protectors, drawing inspiration from titles like Ogre Battle and XCOM, to defend endangered species in a world teetering on collapse. The game merges turn-based tactical combat with RTS pauses, allowing players to weigh diplomacy against force while managing reputation, funds, and alliances. Every decision impacts how factions perceive the Caretakers—will they inspire fear or rally support? With over 100 characters to recruit, each offering unique skills and flaws, squad customization drives replayability. The story unfolds in a richly crafted universe featuring an afrofuturist aesthetic by acclaimed artist Anthony Jones, blending mystery and moral complexity. From training 30+ job classes to expanding a futuristic HQ, players shape a dynamic resistance against escalating threats. We Are The Caretakers redefines strategy gaming with its immersive blend of narrative depth.
