The only one you can blame is yourself

In a lot of roguelikes, FTL included, you can sometimes get royally screwed by RNG. Not this time. You know that every time your run goes south, it's your own damn fault. It's infuriating, having your crew die and your energy depleted, knowing that the only one you can blame is yourself. Oh well, let's rewind time and try again. Into the Breach plays like a bizarre chess game where you know what your opponent is about to do, and it is your job to disrupt their plans. Initially when looking at videos and screenshots of the game I thought the scope was far too small, and I would have liked a bigger board and more units, but after playing it for a couple of days I must say that I was entirely wrong about that. The balance is perfect, it allows for a lot of variey but avoids getting clogged. It looks quaint, but keeping those pesky critters away can be a real handful. All in all solid and incredibly reasonably priced entry from Subset Games that will inevitably spawn a host of clones, just like FTL did. I can't wait for what they will come up with next.

Mech Chess with RNG Elements

For starters, I have never played any previous Subset Games` Game (namely, FTL). But I have enjoyed playing this very much. So much, that I´m writing a review for this, which is something that I don`t do regularly (so far I have written only 1). Into the Breach is an easy to learn, difficult to master kind of a game. It looks like chess, but there is a surprising amount of depth to the tactical combat here. I will not go into a lot of details here (other people could describe it better than I do), and you can always go to YouTube to watch the gameplay. Suffice it to say, the gameplay is solid and relatively bug-free (or vek-free, at the end of most missions). So far, I have only experienced one bug - with GOG in-game overlay. The UI is very well communicated to the player. You are always informed about what is going to happen, and there is always an option to test all of your mechs before starting a new mission. So if you are not sure how a weapon functions - you can always test it, and see the results. Sadly, RNG can sometimes be unforgiving. For example, you have very damaged mechs, and the worst possible combination of enemies emerges from the ground, and outright destroys you. But starting over is something that you do naturally in this game, and you can keep your best pilot with you for the next run. By my statistics, I have about 50% win/lose ratio, which is also partially associated with achievement hunting. The achievements help you unlock new squads, and generally feel difficult, but rewarding. A lot of fun could be had with the custom and random squads - and I am sure a lot of streamers will be playing around with these. All in all, a surprisingly good game that I have nearly missed. I have never heard about it until its release on GOG, but I bought it, and never regretted it. The developers put a lot of effort into this game, and it shows. And if you like games like XCOM, it is a must-have.

Instant cult classics

This game is essentially a love child of Advance Wars and FTL done right, with all the good parts in, minus all the frustrating stuff. Turn-based only, so you have time to evaluate the situation and think. A lot less random luck, a lot more skill on player's part. Think of it as a modern chess game, on procedurally generated maps, or a kind of take on puzzle genre, where you really have to think your next step in advance. Very rewarding when you finally get to understand all the tactical choices you have there and use them properly. Pixel art visuals are super well done, as well as musical score - can't get enough of those. Highly recommended to all the turn-based tactics fans.

Great little game!

It's kinda short and simple if you just look at the core of the game but very entertaining!
