Much better than FTL.

Into the Breach keeps the fun parts of the previous game of its creators (rich arsenal with different instruments for havoc and destruction, nice plot, multiple unlockables that make replaying the game again and again worthwhile), but it doesn't take that much time and effort to get to the final battle (and, in many cases, lose it). Also, turn-based tactical combat! And the mech pilots, each with his/her/robotic personality and reactions, and with their special abilities. Another thing I like is that you can make your own custom team of mechs from those you've unlocked. But enough talk. Let's drop onto the islands and kick some Vek butt. Excelsior!

It's not FTL2 but it's still outstanding

I was sad hearing that they weren't making FTL2, but after playing this game for 10 min I realized this dev team is absolutely outstanding when it comes to making original and very deep games with crazy amounts of replayability. Unlike FTL this game is more about strategy and less about “random LOL moments” and I understand this might put some people off, but for all the people who complained that FTL was too random or that there’s too much RNG, this is what you NEED to play. This game has zero RNG and every move you make has a huge impact on the outcome. I for one am a huge fan of real-time-with-pause type of games and I’m very bad at puzzles, but still I was hooked for 3-4 hours non-stop when I started playing this. It is a testament to this team’s skill as developers and designers that they can make such addicting and fun games, even when they make puzzle-turn-based-strategy games like this that require a lot of brainpower. I hope to see more soon from them and thank you for another great game. Highly recommended to anyone, especially if you like TBS.

What a gem!

What a terrific little game: a roguelite turn based strategy game where nearly every turn is a dense little tactical puzzle to tease apart. I've sunk hours into it already, and will sink many more. I'm already hoping there will be an expansion or sequel.

Addiction Warning

Excellent TBS game. Will have you up until the wee hours of the morning telling yourself "I should really go to sleep...after one more level."

They did it again :)

You can see that a lot of thought went into the different terrain types, mechs, monsters, abilities, weapons, etc... It's a very elegant little title that will most likely keep you busy for many hours. A ton of replayability, a great atmosphere, the aesthetics known from FTL turned up a notch. If you like punching monsters in the face, solving complex (but very gratifying) tactical puzzles in turn-based combat, and learning as you win or lose, this is definitely the game for you.
