Despite being played on small, grid-based maps, the game makes you feel part of something much bigger than it first appears. There are no flashy effects or visuals, but it leaves a lot to your imagination, letting you fill in the gaps yourself. You can see the future, but it’s up to you how you respond and shape each loop toward the best possible outcome. With multiple strategies and high replayability, you can spend 5 hours finishing it or 95h mastering every mech.
expanded my brain. sometimes u cant do something "perfectly", and thats totally ok. invaluable lesson to get from a video game
GF bought this for me, i was skeptical because these arent usually my kinds of games. I've done nothing but binge it since getting it. Absolutely a blast,
