Rundenstrategie in Perfektion

Zuerst zu den Schwächen: Die Grafik des Spiels ist zweckmäßig und die Hintergrundgeschichte ist nur ein mittelmäßiger Rahmen für das Spiel. Der Fokus liegt eindeutig auf den rundenbasierten Kämpfen und die spielen tatsächlich in einer eigenen Liga. Eine Mission besteht aus mehreren Runden und dauert in der Regel nicht mehr als 10 Minuten. Dabei müssen eigene Einheiten und Gebäude vor Gegnern geschützt werden. Um dies zu Erreichen sind unterschiedliche Strategien möglich. Verschiedene Haupt- und Nebenaufgaben sorgen hier für Abwechslung. Im Gegensatz zu anderen Spielen dieser Art ist bei "Into the Breach" immer ersichtlich was der Gegner in der nächsten Runde tun wird. Dadurch lassen sich Strategien ohne böse Überraschungen planen und für eine Niederlage ist man selbst verantwortlich. So war ich nach jedem Scheitern trotzdem motiviert es nochmal zu versuchen (wenn auch manchmal erst einen Tag später). Insgesamt sind die Missionen fair und selbst auf der höchsten Schwierigkeitsstufe (mit ein wenig Spielerfahrung) schaffbar. Ein Durchlauf besteht aus mehreren Missionen und dauert bei Erfolg etwa ein bis zwei Stunden. Wie bei anderen Rogue-likes muss bei einer Niederlage komplett von vorne gestartet werden. Nach und nach können neue Einheiten freigeschaltet werden, die neue Strategien möglich machen. Zwischen den Mission werden Einheiten aufgewertet oder mit Waffen ausgerüstet. Eine weitere strategische Ebene entsteht durch den Einsatz von Helden. Jede Einheit kann von maximal einem Helden besetzt werden. Auf diese Weise erhält die Einheit einen speziellen Vorteil. Helden können Level aufsteigen, bei Verlust der Einheit sterben und unter Umständen von einem Durchlauf zum nächsten übernommen werden. Alles in allem bietet dieses Spiel die perfekte Mischung zwischen kurzen Missionen und enormen strategischem Tiefgang. Ich kann es nur weiterempfehlen. Fazit: Wer Rundenstrategie mag und sich nicht an der Pixelgrafik stört kommt voll auf seine Kosten.

Small, replayable, extremely tight

I can wholeheartedly recommend this game. The buzz about it being a strategy/tactics revelation is correct. It's not expensive, so please just go ahead, buy it and see for yourself. I don't wanna spoil. I do however find that the game is a little too small, in a way. Of course there's lots of achievements and replayability and stuff to unlock, but I've already won the game on the second attempt. Granted, I haven't seen everything (didn't do the fourth island yet), but I believe I've seen the core. FTL was different in that regard. It was more sprawling, and it was - in my opinion - much harder, probably because it featured more randomization. I only played Into the Breach on "Normal", but winning FTL for the first time on that difficulty took me about 30 hours, and I still remember that moment fondly even now. Here, it was sort of anticlimactic, because I expected it to be near-impossible judging from the reviews. I find that when you stop and think before your turn, it's actually quite manageable - and I really am far from a grognard or chess grandmaster. So, don't worry everyone, try this year's masterpiece!

A great addition to the Strategy sphere

I've only spent an hour with this game so far. In that small time frame the game has proven itself to be a succesful addition to and a very interesting take on the strategy genre. Rather than focusing solely on damage, stats, or abilities, the game offers a small and simple tool set to complete each mission. Weapons deal some damage of course, but their main use lies in their ability to push things around. Enemies can be rearranged with this mechanic so that they damage each other, prevent their allies from spawning, or in some cases can even instant kill them if they are shoved into water or collide with enough things to kill them. The 3 starting mechs have a really interesting take on the way they use these mechanics. The melee mech knocks enemies back 1 tile and does 2 damage, which in the early game is a good setup for 1 hit KO against other objects. The tank can shoot half way across the map in a straight line and knocks back 1 tile. The artillery is so far the most interesting, with the most potential for interesting emergent gameplay. It's shot can travel across the whole map in a straight line. The shot itself deals 1 damage, but will also cause 1 knockback on each of the four adjacent tiles. It creates a lot of "Oh snap!" moments where you can for example aim beside a target to line up shots for your other mechs. Or if one of your own guys gets surrounded, you could also shoot your mech with artillery and use the adjacent knockback to help it mitigate some damage. It's a simple concept, but there are a surprising number of ways it can be applied in combat, and is a fresh take on the turn based tactics genre. The time travelling mechanic is also a nice way of alleviating some of the pain of losing in a roguelike. When you lose, you can choose 1 of your pilots to travel to another timeline and he will carry over his stats, so not all progress is lost. And PS: this game has been working fine on my Mac via wineskin port, if you don't have windows like me.

Fight, win, repeat

Into The Breach is a good rogue game. Short missions that get progressively harder with a load of unit teams to unlock. It's great honestly and if I were playing it on switch or mobile it would have gotten a higher score. After completing a few runs, I realize it's just not for me. The strategy feels just as well done as the art and the music easily blends into the background to keep from distracting. Great game to play when you're looking to kill time but not one I want to lose myself in.

Deceptively Simple

There is much to praise about this little tactics title. The premise and gameplay is simple and intuitive, but the potential challenge and depth is immense. The amount of playable units, weapon and enemy options, difficulty settings, and environmental features provide much variety, allowing players of any skill level to find enjoyment. Rather than all gameplay being a version of 'kill the foes', the overall victory condition is to win the map; to prevent destruction; to secure objectives. This allows for increased strategic depth in the gameplay and unit composition. For example, one squadron may win by being uniquely immune to fire, and immolating the environment to burn foes, or another manipulating enemy position to prevent damage to the objective structures, or have foes damage one another. In other words, the player is presented challenges to overcome: is increasingly rewarded for strategic novelty and precision, and understanding unit strengths: each turn is like a little puzzle, and each map or run expects the player to plan ahead - consider which maps are best completed immediately, later, or not at all! A topic little discussed is the performance of games. It is not uncommon for users on lower end machines to notice the increased memory consumed by modern browsers or certain modern games which one would assume to be simple is higher than anticipated. Into the Breach runs buttery smooth. For comparison, watching a stream on a standard browser consumes more resources than this game. It also plays great with controller or mouse and keyboard, and has in-game achievements. My only real complaint, that holds no water, is in the music and writing. Not that anything is poor about it, conversely, it is very good. Only that this game can be a little addictive - so long or repeated play sessions can result in it becoming a little stale. But the game is not designed to be played this way, so I don't consider it valid. Overall, a great game recommended to all.
