About

Salvage Protocol

Features
Read full description

Salvage Protocol is a deterministic turn-based tactics game. There is no dice, no hit chance, and no critical rolls — damage is fixed and every outcome is knowable before you commit. Winning is pure planning, positioning, and reading the enemy. Lose a unit and it's gone for the run. Command a squad of salvaged combat mechs across a 6×8 grid. Pick your chassis, spend each unit's move and action, line up attacks, and use once-per-battle special abilities — dash strikes, shockwave slams, and armor-piercing shots — to break the enemy formation. FEATURES • Deterministic combat — no RNG. Damage previews are exact; if you can read the board, you can win. • Four modes — a 10-level campaign with a mid-boss and a final boss, plus Endless, Daily Challenge, and Puzzle Challenge. • Five distinct mech chassis, each with its own stats and special ability. Build the squad that fits your plan. • Star ratings, achievements, and stat tracking to master every mission. • One-handed portrait play, tuned for quick tactical sessions. • Fully offline. No account, no internet, no servers — your progress stays on your device. • Accessibility options — reduced motion, combat speed, colorblind support, and volume controls. Free to play. An optional rewarded ad lets you revive a fallen squad — it is never required to progress. No dice. No excuses. Just tactics.
