Build your legacy</h2>Rank &amp; Ruin is a tactical roguelite where how you command your armies in the moment decides whether you survive the next wave.This is not a game you watch. You move squads, issue charges, hold positions, and deploy your hero's once-per-battle ability at exactly the right moment. Preparation matters. Decisions under pressure matter more<video class="bb_img" autoplay muted loop playsinline poster="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/4806610/extras/05c5b634eab11671067b27d65a0c7fdd.poster.avif?t=1783804584" width=1170 height=658 ><source src="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/4806610/extras/05c5b634eab11671067b27d65a0c7fdd.webm?t=1783804584" type="video/webm; codecs=vp9"><source src="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/4806610/extras/05c5b634eab11671067b27d65a0c7fdd.mp4?t=1783804584" type="video/mp4"></video><h2 class="bb_tag" >Real-Time Tactical Combat</h2>Your squads fight in real 2D space on a live battlefield.
