THE COMBAT SYSTEM
CONTEXTUAL COMBAT
Expand your influence by upgrading your fighters and unlocking devastating abilities that reward skillful timing. Persistent progression means each encounter feels meaningful, letting you craft a playstyle that’s as ruthless—or as strategic—as you want.
Take to the streets personally and make your enemies pay for crossing you with a fluent, dynamic combat system. Engage them with various melee and ranged weapons, sneak up behind them or use the environment to finish them off. You’ll never lose control of what’s going on around you either. Thanks to the tactical mode it’s possible to simultaneously fight, plan your next moves and command your team without breaking the pace.
PLANNING SYSTEM
Release your inner strategist: thanks to the unique planning system you will be able to freely and comfortably design an entire operation in a matter of minutes. From simple street skirmishes to elaborate heists, prepare a plan of action in detail, watch your men perform your orders and react independently to all changes on the battlefield. Or, if you want, command them directly and use their abilities to the utmost.
Fine-tune every waypoint, assign specialized roles, and let the AI handle the rest while you monitor the unfolding chaos. Adaptive enemy behavior means no plan survives first contact, so be ready to pivot strategies in real time. Master the flow of information and resources, and you’ll turn even the most impossible odds into a flawless execution.
EIGHT DIFFERENT FIGHTER CLASSES
Take up to eight different gangster classes with you to the street – each suited best for different types of tasks and situations. Take care of them, develop their skills and assign them to their duties as you see fit.
But be careful – there are plenty of dangers in the streets of Portsmouth. To that end, outfit them with various types of equipment. Be it armaments, personal protection or special items – use any means necessary to seize the advantage over your rivals. Use synergies between the classes to unleash special abilities that can flip a desperate brawl into a decisive victory. Persistent wounds and mounting stress demand a network of safehouses and smart crew rotations if you hope to keep your empire afloat. Groom standout lieutenants into underbosses to unlock squad-wide perks, adding fresh tactical angles and a morale boost when the bullets start flying
Behind Closed Doors
MULTI-LAYERED DIALOGUES
Navigate the high and low society of Portsmouth with help of a unique, multi-layered dialogue system allowing you to fully plan out and control the many dialogue challenges facing you on the way to get your revenge back. Build a vast network of friends, allies, business partners, enemies and rivals and maintain it in a constantly evolving political and business environment.
Your words and signs can charm, deceive, or intimidate—every choice shifts your standing and unlocks new narrative branches. Leverage secrets you uncover to manipulate rival factions, or broker fragile alliances that turn the tide in your favor. With reputation affecting every conversation, a single well-placed phrase – or even a single gesture – can spark an all-out turf war.
GANG MANAGEMENT
Manage your gang, its economy and activities, broker alliances or backstab your partners, work within Portsmouth’s balance of power or break it completely – the city can be yours. Engage in multiple sorts of criminal work, complete many different kinds of missions – rob, murder, steal, extort, swindle, profit from various vices like gambling, drinking and other obscenities.
Expand your empire by investing dirty money into front businesses that funnel resources straight back to your operations while keeping the law at bay. Dynamic territory control forces you to defend your turf at all times, seizing rival rackets or burning them to the ground when negotiations fail. Every decision reshapes the city’s underworld ecosystem, ensuring no two playthroughs unfold the same way.
CHOICE-BASED PLOT ARCHITECTURE
As a gang leader, Charity will also grow personally and meet multiple persons on her way – both friends and foes. Obscenities: Hell Hath no Fury offers a full RPG experience with engaging dialogues, captivating characters and multiple-choice plot – but mind, they will be final and have both short-range and plot-wide impact.
Shape her morality through tough choices that ripple across the narrative, transforming alliances and the city itself. Skill upgrades let you tailor Charity’s approach, from silver-tongued persuasion to ruthless efficiency, each unlocking unique story avenues.
