This spy game is a dream come true if you love spending time in character creators

If you find joy in crafting detailed avatars in RPGs, then Legion Was Here is a game that will feel like a dream come true for you. The game places a heavy emphasis on character creation, to the point where it may consume most of your time. In Legion Was Here, players take on the role of a spy tasked with impersonating someone else, down to the smallest details of their appearance and personality.

Rather than simply walking into an undercover situation as James Bond, players must meticulously study a dossier filled with the target's physical attributes, background, interests, and even their most intimate secrets. The goal is to create a convincing disguise that can fool the target's friends, family, and associates, who may eventually suspect that they are speaking to an imposter.

The game's demo, set to release later this year, presents players with a partial photo and a rudimentary drawing to work from, requiring them to fill in the missing details based on their own imagination. The dossier also provides information about the target's lifestyle, such as their occupation, favorite foods, and hobbies. Players must absorb as much information as possible before embarking on their mission, which involves answering questions and maintaining their disguise under scrutiny.

The game's silliness is evident in its playful approach to character creation, as players may find themselves impersonating an alien disguised as a human disguised as a clown, all while trying to thwart a nefarious plot to blow up Mount Rushmore. The demo proves to be both entertaining and challenging, with players facing the risk of being discovered if they make even a single mistake.
