Purple Haze

A tactical, campaign-level story game set in Vietnam, 1967. Players command a small Marine squad through jungle, rice paddies, and villages, balancing mission objectives with squad survival. Gameplay mixes narrative decision-making with tactical firefights: players make hard moral and logistical choices that shape the unfolding story while resolving combat and movement at the squad level. Wounded and fallen characters affect future missions as surviving veterans gain experience and lasting scars. Scales from solo to four players and focuses on campaign continuity, resource management, and the consequences of desperate, split-second decisions.
