Syndicate Overview
Syndicate presents a near-future setting where global power is concentrated in the hands of a few corporate entities. The player assumes the role of a corporate operative, tasked with expanding their syndicate's influence through direct, forceful means rather than negotiation.
Control is exercised through a squad of four agents, directed in real-time from a top-down perspective. Missions involve objectives like infiltration or elimination, with the team engaging hostile forces directly. Success in these operations generates funds, which are allocated to research, new equipment, or recruiting additional personnel.
Progression is tied to managing these financial resources and completing assignments, which allows for the enhancement of agents through upgrades and captured or developed technology. The core loop involves securing territorial control to fund further advancements, creating a cycle of tactical combat and strategic resource management.
