Contest: Win a Steam copy of Synthetik

This contest is 100% natural

A contest a day keeps the doctor away. Test your luck for a Steam copy of Synthetik.

The only thing better than making a great game is making a great game even greater. And that’s exactly what Flow Fire Games has done with Synthetik. Already boasting a Very Positive user rating on Steam, today sees the launch of the Legion Rising expansion.

Enter our contest to try out the newly-enhanced game for yourself for free!

Synthetik is a top-down roguelike shooter featuring modular difficulty and randomly-generated levels to keep you on your toes. With advanced weaponry, eight character classes, weapon jamming, multi-stage reloading, and switchable ammo types, the game is already acclaimed by critics and fans. The Legion Rising update takes things to a whole new level:

If you’ve somehow tried out all of the 60+ weapons (and 1,200 variations) in these past six months, mastered every item, enemy and boss battle, and perfected your endgame strategy, we have good news for you. New free content is added to every part of the game, gameplay improvements are made, the interface received an overhaul and five new languages (French, Spanish, Italian, Polish, and Brazilian Portuguese) are supported.

There are now eight class specializations to choose from with fresh playstyles and 48 new passive benefits. Play as the backstabbing Assassin, use your turret and superior technology as Engineer, blow up everything as the Demolisher, fight face to face with the armored Riot Guard, or any of several others.

Strategize with 125 upgradable items (everything from sentry turrets and psionic traps to mind control devices and ancient relics) and 20 new weapons, balance tactical decisions to take a shot at unforgiving new boss encounters, enemies and the enhanced endgame challenge after beating the final boss.

Following the huge expansion, SYNTHETIK will increase in price and gain the Legion Rising subtitle, reflecting everything that has been added both with this add-on, what is yet to come, and the many earlier updates since the game launched. Owners of SYNTHETIK will receive everything in the expansion for free.

Do you have what it takes to defeat the Machine Legion?

Like I said, they’ve gone and made a great thing even greater.

To enter for your chance to win, comment down below with your favorite class specialization. Mine is of course the Tacomancer, who uses arcane runes to summon legions of tacos to terrorize his enemies. How can a taco terrorize someone, you might ask? If you’ve ever had a taco de chorizo, you know the horrors they can inflict.

We have 20 Steam keys to give out; winners will be drawn on Thursday, October 11. Make sure you comment using a Dtoid account that has your current email address on file. If I can’t email you, I’ll be forced to unleash the fury of a chorizo taco upon you.

Synthetik, along with the new Legion Rising update, is available now on Steam.
