[b]Call for Backup[/b] is a spiritual successor to [b]Radio Commander[/b] - one of the most innovative real-time strategies in recent years. But with a twist! [b]Serious Sim[/b] - the team behind Radio Commander - was not interested in developing a safe and obvious continuation. That’s why Call for Backup is a weird, funny, bold, and ambitious mix of two genres - a real-time strategy where the player possesses limited knowledge about a battlefield and a fast-paced twin-stick shooter.

The game - which includes a single-player campaign, but is best played in an up to 4 players co-op mode - shares a commander view with Radio Commander. While up to 3 players control drones on the surface, the commander looks over the strategic map, sends supplies and bombardments. But the commander can’t see the whole situation - that’s why constant communication within the team is crucial to success.
Call for Backup takes place in an alternative timeline in which III Reich lost the II world war. A brutal dictatorship took power over the United States, while Stalin and his accolade - Rasputin – created GULag EUROPE. The III world war destroyed humanity in the 1960s. But not all life has perished. As mysterious ghoul hordes keep people locked underground, both governments send robotic drones to the surface, so they can continue the war.
The game will debut in Early Access so that the team will have a chance to gather feedback and create the best game possible. After all, Call for Backup is designed primarily as a co-op game. We would like to encourage all players to send their feedback and thank them in advance!
