Skinny Bandit Studios has unveiled a steampunk-inspired deckbuilding RPG for Steam called Mechjestic. In this retro-futuristic world, players will need to master mechanized behemoths to survive in card battles, gain crucial resources, and empower actions.
Moving around via a hexagon-based overworld, you’ll be able to invest in these mechs to make sure they stay more relevant than the latest iPhone release, ‘offering players unparalleled freedom to shape their strategies and adapt to challenges’ with the innovative gameplay mechanics, Mech building and the Refuel system.
The story behind Mechjestic is the princess of the Kingdom of Endless Pond, Frolein. Her job is to thwart the plans of TimeKeeper and Dr. Chronos with the aid of her trusty mech, Iron Tadpole.
As avid fans of steampunk and mechs across media and games, we are keen to hear what players think about our game – It’s like Heroes of Might and Magic 3 and Slay the Spire had a fantasy Steampunk baby!Robin Ekeheien, CEO of Skinny Bandit Studios
