    Superhero strategy game Capes gets four new levels in free update

    There's no shortage of strategy games that riff off of XCOM, but one of this year's most interesting newcomers has to be Capes . The turn-based superhero tactics title might not be revered as a genre-defining experience, but it's certainly distinctive and has gone over well with

    Capes review

    ll the best superhero teams have one thing in common: everyone has their role. While Wolverine's charging in, claws flashing, Cyclops is up on a ridge shooting down lasers, Iceman is zipping around freezing foes, Jean Grey is delving into a supervillain's mind, and Colossus is bo

    Capes review - XCOM with superheroes and tricky turn-based tactics

    It only takes one look at Spitfire Interactive's Capes to see that it's the lovechild of XCOM and Marvel's Midnight Suns. This expectation sets perhaps an unfairly high bar for a new developer's debut game, but it's hard to escape those comparisons. And while Capes never quite re

    Capes is a superhero game about the legacy its heroes inherit, but also the legacy of turn-based tactics as a genre

    Irrational's Freedom Force games celebrated the Silver Age of comics in all its goofy glory, with a cast of characters including a time-traveling robot called Microwave and a witch named Alchemiss. Capes evokes a later, more serious era: the Bronze Age of the 1970s and '80s, afte

    New strategy game is XCOM with superheroes, coming very soon

    Marvel's Midnight Suns perfectly marries the excellence of the Firaxis XCOM games with superhero antics. The two games aren't exactly the same, with Midnight Suns opting for smaller playspaces and less of the dead soldiers, but it proved that strategy and superheroes are a great
