Today’s Niche Spotlight is War Mongrels, an isometric real-time tactics stealth-action game set during WWII by Destructive Creations.
War Mongrels tells the story of two German deserters on the eastern front, that end up joining a Polish resistance group launching daring raids to disrupt the Nazi war effort. Control a squad of resistance fighters, each with their own unique skills and abilities, as you sabotage German machinery, steal supplies, and assassinate officers.
Use stealth to silently take out or avoid guards, use the right characters’ skills to handle any given situation, and exploit environmental hazards to cause havoc and distract the enemy. If you get spotted, you’ll also have a chance to fight your way out of a tough situation.
You can find the launch trailer- and prior trailers tied to it- below.
War Mongrels is available on Windows PC via Steam for $44.99 USD.
