Strange Scaffold announces Gods With Badges, a narrative tactics game launching on Steam in 2027

Strange Scaffold announced Gods With Badges, a narrative tactics game, during the Triple-I Initiative showcase on 8th October, with a planned 2027 release on Steam for PC. Players take the role of Harrow McClellan, a disgraced police officer patrolling the dystopian city of Scarhelm, where dialogue choices, arrests and uses of force shape her relationships with fellow officers, the public and institutions. Escalations shift the game into isometric turn-based combat, and players can temporarily disable Harrow's body camera to unlock new tactical and dialogue options at the cost of the public record. The project builds on Hard Justice, an unrealised game from strategy studio Artificer, and is part of Strange Scaffold's Project Share initiative.
