Showgunners

This game is absolutely great! It's not something overly complicated but quite streamlined mechanics wise - positioning and actions primarily and the premise is not something that normally appeals to me - a deadly game show. However, it's so well done and works. I am actually invested in this and greatly enjoy the combat scenarios the game presents. Cyberpunk TRPG is a genre I never knew I could enjoy or that this game would be something I'd recommend but here we are

Showgunners is a tactical turn-based, composed of 10 episodes plus one additional from the free DLC.Every episode is a large area, composed of fighting arenas, solving puzzles, avoiding and disarming traps, exploring for loot containers and collecting autographs that increase your fame. In every episode you will have 8–10 fights.The fights are not that unforgiving as they are in the X-com series,even on hard difficulty.The first 3 episodes are a little bit harder because you are low on life, practicaly no skills and your gear sucks. During the episodes, you will collect various members for your team,with different skills, suitable for any tactical approach. Some of the guns have higher damage against a particular enemy, but it's weaker for the others, so you need to plan your fights before entering them.I finished the game on hard difficulty + Ironman in 17 hours and 44 min, and it was a blast.The most difficult part of the Ironman run are not the fights which, if they are planned correctly, are quite easy (I played a lot of turn-based games for over 2000+ hours in the X-com series only), but the damage received from traps found in the environmentoment. If you receive continuous damage, from more than 3 times,you are dead.Some of the traps can be disarmed to avoid the damage alltogheter.Before every arena fight,you have the shop and the free refill of your life if you receive damage from the environment.In the exploration zone of the game, you will encounter ambushes, which are small fights with 3–4 enemies.Every new episode introduces a new type of enemy with different abilities. The last 2 episodes are overpopulated with enemies,but at that time you will have all the characters at full level, fully geared. Phantom the sniper is easily the most deadly character in the game and, if you know how, to use her at full capacity, she can clear rooms full of enemies very easy. I really recommend this game to everyone who is interested in turn-based games. 8/10 for me

This game is a wonderful bite sized x-com. The fights are quick and there is a great deal of ways to clean a room of bad guys. The mixture of arcade running around to get to each ppoint also adds another layer. Well worth a buy.

Game seems good but I can't know for sure since it keeps crashing, tried the usual of verifying game files, playing without galaxy and the advised removal of a snapshots folder, nothing works.

This is a fun game. Although not as polished as others (X-Com), I like the "Running Man" style Cyberpunk-setting. Not a particularly hard game, even on the hardest setting, but still worth the time. Plus, I did like that you get a free DLC level that you can play alone or as a set piece within the story as you progress.
