Taking place during an alternate-history version of World War II, Broken Lines follows a squad of British soldiers that have crash-landed behind enemy lines in their attempth to get back home.
As they trek across Eastern Europe without any form of intel or support, they end up having to battle both enemies but also themselves. The title marries turn-based tactical combat with an emphasis on story and characters.
