KARLSRUHE, GERMANY (April 6, 2022) — Today, Gameforge — the leading publisher of popular massively-multiplayer online games in the west including AION, TERA, OGame, NosTale, and Swords of Legends Online — alongside indie developer Sernur.tech, are pleased to announce an April 28, 2022 PC launch date for their single-player, roguelike strategy game, Trigon: Space Story. Inspired by FTL: Faster Than Light, Trigon: Space Story has drawn the attention of roguelike and strategy game fans. Currently, the game has received over 70,000 wishlists on Steam — a number that is steadily growing.

Trigon: Space Story places players in the captain's seat of a fully-customizable starship where they must manage everything from weapons’ systems and engines to the day-to-day tasks of the crew. A procedurally generated universe with nine sectors to explore, each of which contains 10+ individual systems. With dangerous space anomalies, roving gangs of space pirates, and a complex web of intergalactic politics to navigate, players will need to strategize each approach with myriad factors to consider. Outfit each ship with more than 70 different weapons and play from the perspectives of four highly unique species, each with their own quirks and advantages. A procedurally generated roguelike universe provides a new adventure every run and will force players to truly learn the meaning of “Improvise, Adapt, Overcome”.
