GearHead is a roleplaying game that features mecha and follows the roguelike genre with randomly generated levels and permadeath mechanics.
Another feature that sets GearHead apart from other RPGs is the detailed character system. Each character has their own set of stats and characteristics, which affects their performance in the game. Additionally, there are over two hundred customizable mecha designs that players can choose from, which adds another layer of customization to the game.
One of the most exciting aspects of GearHead is the ability to pilot giant robots. This elevates the game to a thrilling level that is unrivaled by most other ASCII-based RPGs. The movement mechanics in GearHead is somewhat more complex than other roguelikes, but it is easy to get used to once you’ve had some practice.
The game’s navigational display provides information on your character's direction, speed, and altitude, giving you total control of your character's movements. The display is located on the left-hand side of the character info window. Overall, GearHead is a must-try for those looking for an unforgettable gaming experience.
