Top critical reviews
The most up-voted negative English reviews in our sample, quoted as written.
“This is a fantastically made game with a lot of heart. A lot of love and care was put into making this game look and play well . . . However, I don't recommend it to others tactics players, because it *isn't* a tactics game in the way…”
“Bland writing, low enemy variety, middling to terrible voice acting and direction, and mechanics that feel closer to a puzzle game with how you have to chain kills than any kind of typical turn based tactics. Think Tactical Breach Wizards…”
