It’s also like Desperados or, as the title says, Shadow Tactics. Stargate: Timekeepers is a real-time tactical stealth game about sneaking around the woods, distracting guards, and choking-out those you can’t avoid.“Stargate: Timekeepers is a real-time tactics game where you lead a team of specialists through a story-driven campaign set in the SG-1 universe”, says TimekeepersSteam page. “Sneak your characters behind enemy lines, use their unique skills, craft the perfect plan to unravel a timeloop mystery, and defeat the Goa’uld threat.“There’s not much more information than that and what was included in the original announcement. Timekeepers' plot apparently “departs from the end of season 7 of the Stargate SG-1 main plot to create an original story,” telling the story of Commander Eva McCain as they support SG-1 against Anubis’s fleet across 14 missions.I’m not a huge Stargate fan, despite having watched far too much of it when I stumbled across it on TV. I do love real-time tactics though, and will take as many games about patrol routes and view cones as I can get. Timekeepers has no release date yet.
