Reverse Collapse: Code Name Bakery

About

Reverse Collapse: Code Name Bakery is a tactical turn-based RPG set in a near-future world fractured by the "Second Cold War." Two superpowers, the Antarctic Union and the UURSG, clash over control of advanced tech, and players guide a lone operative named Mendo through this conflict. The game blends squad-based combat with resource management, as you command units, plan movements, and exploit terrain to outmaneuver enemies. Its story ties to a prequel, expanding on a 30-year timeline with new characters and missions. The core loop mixes strategic planning with quick decision-making, making each battle feel like a puzzle to solve. The game stands out for its layered narrative and character dynamics. Mendo’s amnesia and uneasy alliance with the enigmatic Jefuty drive a mystery that unfolds through cutscenes and dialogue. While not a sequel, it builds on existing lore without requiring prior knowledge. With polished visuals and streamlined mechanics, it maintains the tactical depth of its predecessor while adding refined UI and mission design. Early reviews praise its balance of story and strategy, though some note its pacing can feel slow. Best for players who enjoy cerebral combat and slow-burn conspiracies.

Storyline

Mendo, an operative from MID, the Antarctic Union's intelligence agency, was the sole survivor of an ambush on his tactical team during a mission, which left him with amnesia.

As he gets closer to the truth, the veil of mystery over Jefuty's true identity is lifted bit by bit, and it becomes clear that Mendo has gotten himself embroiled in a massive conspiracy...
