Description
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!

An almost perfectly formed strategy game, that hides near infinite variety and depth beneath its deceptively simple presentation.

Exacting, agonising, challenging, and intensely rewarding, Into the Breach delivers in the tiniest package the most perfectly formed tactics around.

The simple presentation belies a deep and engaging gameplay loop that unfolds over multiple playthroughs, as new unlocks completely change required tactics

Not a successor to FTL in any way

I bought this game day 1 sight unseen because I really enjoyed FTL. Beside the graphics, I don't see much in common. It really is more of a puzzler than a strategy game, and not very fun. There is a subjectivity to the gameplay that makes a lot of it not make sense. It is also very frustrating at first, I don't think they do a good job explaining how to play in the tutorial. I wish I hadn't bought the game.

Is this helpful to you?

Great game - a bit short though :(

Sadly this game is a bit shorter than I expected, even with the multiple types of mecha to unlock. Essentially it's a turn based tactics game where you need to defend the city from a kaiju invasion (pacific rim tactics?) slowly building yourself up for an attack on their base. Every time you fail you search for a different timeline where you win (ugh, time travel...) That said, the game is fantastic, works perfectly, was quite a lot of fun, my complaint more or less is that for a rogue-lite it's rather short, and despite the number of mechas and items I feel like I'm getting a lesser experience compared to FTL: Faster Than Light (by the same creators) it's also worth noting, it's not nearly as difficult as FTL, so if you bought this for challenge, play on Hard.

Turnbased and wonderfully solvable missions

The missions can almost always be solved with perfect placements and usage of movement and effects. Love this game!
