Introduction
The year is 1865. Advances in
steam technology have set this
world on a different course from that
which you know. Here the divider
between history and literature has
also been blurred; the heroes of war
and the heroes from books are one
and the same.
It falls to you now to take command
of an elite unit made up of these
heroes, utilizing the latest in steam
technology and guiding your forces
in battle against an alien menace
that threatens the entire world.

During a mission, if you pause and
choose Return to Title Screen, you'll
create a single-use quick-save file
that will be deleted after you load it.

you will need to complete an
obj ective (e.g., "reach the goal") to

maps, your agents will be healed of
all damage and you will have the
opportunity to re-equip and/or swap
in different agents.

sight. You may switch between
characters to keep an eye on other
areas of the map.
Overwatch
Characters with certain weapons
equipped and enough steam left
over at the end of their turn will be
placed in overwatch mode. In this
mode, a character will shoot at any
enemy that moves within his or her
range and field of view. Remember,
where you're facing is important for
overwatch!
12
Weapons and Equipment
Your struggle with the alien invaders
will require a variety of weapons and
equipment. Choosing the right tool
for the j ob can be the difference
between success and failure!
Unlocking New Weapons
and Boilers
Early in the game, you will receive
your first two sub weapons, with two
more following shortly afterward.
After that, you will unlock new sub
weapons at certain score thresholds.
Additionally, there are three large
gears on each map, often in out-ofthe-way locations. Collect these to
unlock new boilers for your agents
to use.

Agents
Wars aren't fought by equipment;
they're fought by soldiers. Each
member of S.T.E.A.M. is a uniquely
talented individual, ready to do his
or her part against the alien menace.
Main Weapon
In terms of gameplay, the biggest
difference between agents comes
from their main weapons. These
range from the straightforwardly
powerful Eagle Rifle to the areawide healing ability of the MediMortar.
Special
Each character also has a special
that can be used once per map. Not
all of these are attacks, but all are
very powerful. Use them well.
Ability
Every agent has an ability that
grants either a bonus or an extra
capability. A few characters have
abilities that give a bonus to the
entire squad. These are called Team
Effects.
Stats
Lastly, agents vary in their maximum
health and their weight class. The
former dictates how much damage
agents can take before being
defeated. The latter determines
what kinds of boilers they can wear.
14
Tips & Tricks
Wooden Crates and
Metal Boxes
Crates labeled "S.T.E.A.M." contain
medical kits, extra steam tanks, or
other helpful items. Most damagecausing weapons can break open
these crates, as can an agent with
the Break ability.
Metal boxes will contain medals.
Only certain weapons can break
them open.
Restoring and Reviving
Agents
You can spend medals at save
points to restore the health and
steam of your agents. You can even
revive agents that have fallen!
Weak Points
Most enemy aliens have a weak spot
somewhere on their bodies. Examine
your foes carefully and try attacking
from various angles to see if you
can find these weaknesses.
Tanks and Cannons
Occasionally you will find a
stationary steam cannon or a tank
vehicle on the field. These operate
similarly:
Enter the tank or cannon from the
rear by moving your agent to the
back and pushing forward on the
Circle Pad.
Your agent's steam reserve is used
to fire and move (cannons are
stationary).
Exit the tank or cannon by tapping
Exit.
Be on the lookout for floating
monitors. Besides providing
helpful game tips, they will refill
the steam tank of the agent who
reads them.
15
Versus Mode
Versus mode lets you battle against
a human opponent, with j ust a few
differences from the Campaign
mode:
• There are three different types of
Versus match: Death Match, Medal
Battle, and A.B.E. Battle (see
Versus Game Types below).
• Turns in Death Match and Medal
Battle are on a time limit (A.B.E.
Battles are real time).
• Each player controls his or her own
team of S.T.E.A.M. agents,
equipped with whatever weapons
and equipment he or she has
unlocked in the game thus far.
You will be able to choose from a
variety of maps specifically created
for multiplayer battles and customize
your team with weapons, boilers,
and characters.
Versus Game Types
Death Match: Defeat all four
members of your opponent's squad
before he or she defeats yours.
Medal Battle: Collect more medals
than your opponent within five turns.
A.B.E. Battle: Defeat your
opponent's giant robot in real time.
