Narrative RPG Aether & Iron Announced

Developer Seismic Squirrel officially announced its retro-futuristic narrative RPG Aether & Iron. The game puts players in the role of Gia, a smuggler in an alternate 1930s New York. The city has transformed after the discovery of an anti-gravitational technology called aether and players must build up a crew and customise their car to survive turn-based vehicular battles as they become drawn into a deep conspiracy.

Players are able to upgrade Gia in various skills such as Hustle, Smarts, and Brass with choices and dice playing important roles in determining success. Players use their car to smuggle items across the city as well as fight in battles through the city streets. Players can upgrade and equip various weapons and armour to their vehicle, as well as use traffic hazards to their advantage, such as ramming a foe into obstacles.

Aether & Iron is in development for PC and is planned to release later this year. It is available to wishlist now on Steam.
