Action Legion is a topdown shooter based on the classic hit Cannon Fodder. It is necessary to break through the crowds of enemies, using a wide variety of weapons and using the environment for personal purposes. The tasks are not only the destruction of all opponents on the map, but also their bases with infrastructure. There are tense boss battles that can be found both at the end of the level and as you progress through the chapter.
The game offers to take on the role of a Legion Captain. Action Legion starts with the protagonist landing on the planet PN MDCVIII, captured by the Prognati army. Their forces sow chaos and destruction to the lands, terrorizing the local peaceful tribes. Before their arrival, these were fertile lands filled with colors and picturesque nature. Now only memories and remnants of the former greatness of the planet remained from this.
The main task of the Captain is to deliver the invaders from these lands. Battles will take place both in open spaces and inside various objects, such as enemy bases, barracks, stations, etc. On the locations there are various explosives that can immediately kill a crowd of opponents. Weapons in the game differ in terms of lethal force, rate of fire, and charge capacity.
