Story

The game is set in sixteenth century London, where the utilization of steam energy has made huge advances in technology. On the day of the opening of the Steamgate Bridge, the city is suddenly attacked by strange alien enemies. Henry Flemming is on security detail at the American embassy when the enemy attacks, and he and his best friend John Henry are saved by an airship captained by the President of the United States, Abraham Lincoln, who immediately conscripts them into S.T.E.A.M. (Strike Team Eliminating the Alien Menace). Thus, it is up to S.T.E.A.M. to save London from the attackers.

Gameplay

The gameplay of Code Name: S.T.E.A.M. draws from both third-person shooters and tactical role-playing games. The player is able to control each unit in their team of four and move freely across the grid, though their actions are limited by their steam gauge, which is refilled every turn. Actions such as moving and attacking the enemy use up a unit's steam power (the amount of steam an attack takes is indicated by a bar over the steam gauge. Each character also has a special attack they can use once per stage, which doesn't cost steam. By conserving steam, a unit can perform an overwatch attack during the enemy's turn, automatically striking whenever an enemy enters their line of sight.

In each stage there are several medals, which can be used at checkpoints and between levels to unlock weapons, save the game, and heal. The player can also occasionally find gears, which can be used to permanently upgrade a character's stats.

Two players can play either online or locally, competing by trying to defeat the enemy team.

By scanning an amiibo of the Fire Emblem characters Marth, Ike, Lucina, or Robin, the player can unlock that character as a playable unit in the game. If said character is defeated in battle, the player loses the ability to use that character and must scan the amiibo again to regain them.
