Fight your way through a modern city packed with randomly generated thugs in this turn-based roguelite RPG. Create a highly customizable character by tweaking attributes, active and passive skills, weapons, and appearance before tackling turn-based combat from a first-person view. Target enemy body parts to inflict visible wounds that impact their abilities, like crippling a shooting arm to ruin their aim, then loot cash, food, or vests from fallen foes or trade with arms dealers, doctors, and food vendors.
Death strips your gear and city progress, but retained XP funds better weapons and upgrades for the next run. Explore pub, street, and office locations on randomized premade maps to hunt the boss and claim victory. Casual indie players who enjoy deep customization, tactical combat, and high replayability from roguelite permadeath will keep coming back for varied runs.
City of Thugs is a turn-based roguelite RPG, set in the modern world, where you'll have to fight your way through a city full of randomly generated thugs.
Gameplay:
At the beginning of each game you'll be able to create your own character, with a highly customizable look, attributes, active and passive skills, weapons and more. It all depends on you that you're gonna go all-in for high damage, or you'll follow a more balanced approach. You can try different tactics to find out which playstyle fits you the most.
After you'll die you'll lose your stuff and your progress you've made in the city, but you can keep your earned XP. After leveling up you'll receive more money to spend on weapons and more points to spend on attributes.
There are several active and passive skills and all of them have their unique advantages. Be sure to try all of them to find out which of them are the most useful for your style.
The game uses a first person perspective, so your enemies will stand in front of you. You'll not only see their health bar, but their wounds too, which will be different depending on whether it was caused by your knife or your gun.
Also, injuries do matter: for example, you can do higher damage by aiming at their body, but severely injuring their shooting arm will cause a massive drop in their aiming skill.
After a successful fight, loot your defeated enemies for money, food or bulletproof vests.. Or buy these at the specialized vendors, if you'll manage to come across with them in the city.
Find and kill the boss to complete the game.. and before you'll start another round!!
