Anyone who calls a gunfight a ballet has seen way too many movies. There’s nothing graceful about a shotgun blast to the gut. When bullets start flying, it’s the crew with pinpoint precision and perfectly honed teamwork that walks out alive.
TASTEE: Lethal Tactics is a simultaneous tactics game that drops you into the thick of a close-quarters gunfight. Assemble a crew from 12 elite guns-for-hire and harness their special abilities to gain the upper hand.
TASTEE: Lethal Tactics gives you total control over your units. Anticipate your opponent’s movements, plan your attack, and chain multiple commands together to perfectly execute every nuance. With simultaneous tactics, you can forget about all that back-and-forth nonsense, as both sides issue their orders in unison and watch as their strategies collide in a frenzy of action.
Take down the cartels in 30 single-player missions, practice against the AI, and bring the fight to other players in online multiplayer across 10 maps. With randomized elements in each map, no two fights will ever be the same.
Available now on Steam Early Access, TASTEE: Lethal Tactics is the first independent PC release from Skybox Labs, whose credits include the Age of Empires II and Age of Mythology series. As a special reward for early-adopters, all Early Access players will immediately receive a free code for a friend and a special pack of character skins upon release.

About This Game
One of Destructoid’s top indie games to look for in 2016.
This is TASTEE: we do take out.
You are the director, you will coordinate a master plan using every tool at your disposal. Off the books, unsanctioned and highly illegal, you’ll be doing the dirty work the government can’t.
They are elite, elusive, and deliciously dangerous. Independents and rogues, these mercs do not play well with others and we’re going to cram them all into your rundown diner: TASTEE. They’re an unruly powder keg waiting for a spark…but fortunately most of these guys like explosions. This is your team.
Your job is to recruit these hired guns and form the TASTEE team; use them to orchestrate missions to take down the Cartel. Misfits and outcasts, each merc has refined their own personal MO when it comes to death and destruction. Their unique set of skills is exactly what you’ll need to steal guns, interrupt supply lines, save hostages, formulate traps, and execute epic gunfights on your mission to take down The Cowboy – the big boss responsible for a global crime epidemic. Lethal tactics have been authorized… Good luck.
From the developers of Age of Empires II: The Forgotten and Age of Mythology Extended Edition comes an intense simultaneous turn-based tactical game.
Grab life by the tacticals.
