    EINSTEIN TAKES COMMAND — GEAR UP EINSTEIN! MARCHES INTO STEAM EARLY ACCESS TODAY

    Genius, royalty, and conquerors are reporting for duty. No Deadlines Studio proudly launches Gear Up Einstein! into Steam Early Access today, a wildly creative strategic roguelite auto-battler where history’s greatest figures become your soldiers — and the timeline itself is the battlefield.

    HISTORY’S ICONS, RECRUITED FOR DUTY

    Albert Einstein boosts squad power with genius-level intellect. Cleopatra commands allies through diplomatic mastery. Queen Elizabeth I brings regal leadership and tactical precision. Ragnar unleashes unbridled Viking fury. Genghis Khan storms the front lines — these are just some of the legends you’ll assemble into a squad, then equip with absurd, powerful, and unexpected gear combinations to battle across eras.

    From Ancient Egypt to the Italian Renaissance, from antiquity to a dystopian New York and beyond, every run sends your team through shifting battlefields where history is coming apart at the seams.

    PLAN, POSITION, PREPARE — THEN WATCH THE CHAOS

    This is a game of preparation:

    • Recruit your squad between battles, choosing from an expanding roster of historical figures, each with unique perks and abilities
    • Equip and synergise — stack gear, craft powerful combos, and discover item interactions that turn ordinary units into unstoppable forces
    • Position carefully — once combat begins, the battle unfolds automatically; your setup is all that matters
    • Adapt and evolve — branching choices, crossroads events, and the unpredictable “Divergence” system ensure no two runs play the same way

    Play solo, locally with friends, or online for up to 3 players — with full crossplay between Steam and Itch.io so no one gets left behind.

    Gear Up Einstein! — History’s Greatest Heroes Enlist for Duty as Early Access Lands Nov 6

    Imagine leading Albert Einstein into battle. Cleopatra commanding the front lines. Ragnar Lodbrok storming alongside Queen Elizabeth I. It’s not a fever dream — it’s Gear Up Einstein!, the wildly inventive co-op strategy roguelite from No Deadlines Studio, and it’s marching into Steam Early Access on November 6th, accompanied by a brand-new trailer.

    The game also features a freshly updated demo right now as part of Steam Next Fest (October 19–26), so you can jump in and start recruiting history’s legends before launch day.

    Recruit the Legends — Then Gear Them Up

    Gear Up Einstein! turns the entire history of civilisation into your personal army. You’re in command of a time-travelling vessel, tasked with recruiting the greatest figures from every era — scientists, rulers, warriors, visionaries — and sending them into battle to save reality itself.

    This is a tactical auto-battler: you plan your strategy, position your heroes, kit them out with gear, then watch the chaos unfold. Every historical figure brings unique perks and abilities; stack the right team and you’ll unleash devastating synergies that cut through enemy lines.

    Who’s Reporting for Duty?

    • Albert Einstein — genius-level intellect that boosts squad power
    • Cleopatra — diplomatic mastery that buffs allies
    • Ragnar — unbridled Viking fury
    • Queen Elizabeth I — regal leadership and tactical precision
