Chess(If chess had mechs and giant bugs)

This game has no RNG in its combat. You know exactly where you and your enemies are going to hit and how much damage will be dealt on hit and what effects will be applied(fire, acid etc.). And maybe this is the reason I spend 30 min on one map, carefully reviewing my options and trying to plan things to the best of my ability. In order to keep the game fresh and to have replayability value there is RNG in the mech pilots you are given and the equipment you have access to. The maps are also randomly generated. For me this is the right kind of RNG, the rules of the game are always the same but the equipment you use and the maps you play on will differ from playthrough to playthrough. The soundtrack is also excellent. This game is not FTL 2, it is not even remotely related to FTL but is awesome nonetheless.

Great Game

Awesome game! The difficulty scales very well. Easy is very beginner friendly and hard is always a challenge. Not as good as FTL (10/10 in my opinion) but still one of the best new games out at the moment

Simply tedious.

The hype is awesome surrounding subset games, but new players should be aware that this game (as FTL) is extremely tedious. This is the first and most prevalent feeling around this. Let's put it that way : a turn based games needs you to coordinate each action of your party while predicting what the other players will do next turn. You both needs to gain an advantage on your opponent this turn, AND take into account what he can do next turn using the terrain, his own weapons etcet etcet... But here you don't need to take into account what the other player will do this turn (he is already a turn late on you) or even need to try to predict what he will do (this is given to you). The end result is that the game pretty much plays itself once you have gain a basic understanding of its mecanics. Exactly like FTL, those games might appear awesome at first glance, but will turn empty and repetitive extremely fast.

Mechs vs insects

Into the breach is a turn based mech vs monsters game by the people who made the great game FTL. At times Into the breach feels much closer to a puzzle game than a regular strategy game, but this is one of its great strengths. While the variation between missions between different runs is rather limited, the difference between the mech teams and the general enjoyability of the game make up for it.
