Now includes the free Advanced Edition Update! This adds content throughout the game, including new mechs, enemies, weapons, missions, and more!
The remnants of human civilization are threatened by gigantic creatures breeding beneath the earth. You must control powerful mechs from the future to hold off this alien threat. Each attempt to save the world presents a new randomly generated challenge in this turn-based strategy game from the makers of FTL.
Defend the Cities: Civilian buildings power your mechs. Defend them from the Vek and watch your fire!
Perfect Your Strategy: All enemy attacks are telegraphed in minimalistic, turn-based combat. Analyze your opponent's attack and come up with the perfect counter every turn.
Build the Ultimate Mech: Find powerful new weapons and unique pilots as you battle the Vek infestation across Corporate-Nation islands.
Another Chance: Failure is not an option. When you are defeated, send help back through time to save another timeline!

This game is just what I expected from the crators of FTL. Eveything is on point: the difficulty, music and mech design. Keep on doing such great games!
Although it lacks the micromanagement from its predecessor FTL, it's a great title to any fan of strategy games.
The gameplay is simple at first, but with the increasing number of enemies kill/avoid and buildings to protect, the game wins more depth as you continue your travels through the islands.
Easy to learn but hard to master, the mechanics are easy enough to understand in the tutorial, but you'll eventually have to take some decissions about sacrificing mechs for saving buildings, getting more stars for improving your squad etc... You'll see that time flies when playing this damned game....
Game is addictive like hell, most likely you'll have 'one more turn' syndrome. It's bit less random than FTL, more polished - easy to learn, hard to master. It favours fun gameplay over plot - which exists, yet it's not important - treat it like a game of chess. There's plenty of content to unlock, 6 different mech squads, many weapons and new pilots. Thumbs up, and keep up the good work Subset Games!
The game is really great and is a lot of depth and replayability, however after you have played it for say 10-15 hours intensively you kind of "get it". At that point I felt done with the game, I had already beaten it with a few different squads and even thougn the squads playstyles differ greatly it didn't feel fresh enough to keep playing.
I came back to the game again after 3 month or so and absolutely loved it, I remembered the gist of the game but it took a little bit of time to wrap my head around it and still took another 10 hours or so until I felt that I was done with the game. For me at least its not the kind of game that has endless of playtime potential inteisvely, rather it feels like a comfort game you can always come back to when you don't know what else to play. If you take a break from it and come back later it will always feel like a great experience to play it again.
