What it is
Flotilla is a turn-based strategy game from Blendo Games, released in 2010. You guide orbital battleships as you fight, trade and explore across a galaxy, using movement in three dimensions to approach enemies from different directions. New adventures generate a randomized universe populated with characters, upgrades and encounters, so the setup changes between runs. Loot can be used to outfit your fleet with upgrades and artifacts. Alongside single-player adventures, the game offers cooperative splitscreen play with a friend. Skirmish mode lets you configure fleets for battles against human or computer-controlled opponents. Steam lists PvP, co-op, shared-screen modes and Remote Play Together, as well as partial controller support and Family Sharing. Listed platforms include Windows, Linux, macOS and OnLive; Steam lists Windows, macOS and Linux.
