The review title is not supposed to imply that the gameplay is like FTL. It is made by the same developers, though. When I say that it has the same sort of challenge, I mean that Into the Breach offers the players the same tactics-focused edge-of-your-seat experience as does FTL. The game revolves around short bite-sized battles on a small tile-based map. Your goal? Take your three mechs and protect the civilian buildings. The game is more forgiving, in that every playthrough can be shorter than in FTL. There is also an easy mode, which FTL only received after a couple of patches, if I recall correctly. I love the game. It is very thoroughly polished and if there is one thing i would have to criticise it's that the pixel-art, while pretty, might be a little too plain for some people. Go play it. It is worth every penny.
