8/10 [h1]TL;DR[/h1] Great challenging roguelite tactical game, that constantly builds time pressure and risks due to spawning enemies or stacking debuffs. The enemy variety is sufficient and requires a diversely build squad to counter all the different strengths of the enemies. Sadly the RNG of mission rewards and craftable items can screw a few of your runs. Furthermore some QoL features are missing. -------------------------------- [h1]Pros:[/h1] [h2]Overall look and feel[/h2] [list] [*] Soundtracks are banger [*] Visuals are simplistic but pleasing to the eyes [*] Good squad interface [/list] [h2]Gameplay[/h2] [list] [*] Challenging [*] Simple but great combat [*] Good diversity of runs due to a vast amount of items and different characters(/mechs) [*] There is a decent strategical balance between time pressure and safe approach. Depending on the difficulty new enemies spawn in frequently until you destroy spawner or complete the main mission. This works actually incredibly well for this game and speeds up the runs while creating risks [*] Different difficulty require different builds [*] Certain items only work in synergy with others or with certain characters [*] Good selection of enemies with different attributes and debuffs that they apply require a diverse squad on harder difficulty [/list] [h2]QoL[/h2] [list] [*] Animation skip is a thing. You don't have to wait until your unit is on the destination tile to be able to insert an attack command or end your turn [/list] -------------------------------- [h1]Cons:[/h1] [h2]Gameplay[/h2] [list] [*] The ability to reroll missions and/or craftable items once or twice per run would be great to counter bad RNG [*] It get's somewhat old after ~15h but is still fun for a few runs per day [*] Some items seem to be fairly weak and I couldn't see any synergies with other items or perks to make them work [/list] [h2]Story and world building[/h2] [list] [*] Barely any story. There is a total of approximately 10 emails/articles that you unlock with each successful run [/list] [h2]Bugs + missing QoL[/h2] [list] [*] Missing QoL [list] [*] The viewport doesn't jump towards enemies upon their turn [*] Can't jump to the currently selected own unit but have to pan around manually [*] No keybind to select next unit [*] Confirm movement is the same button as selecting a unit. Therefore you better always deselect with RMB before you select another unit [*] Can't unfold or scroll in the event/activity log. This way you can only see the last 5-10 events, which isn't even 1/4 of a turn late game [*] The health and heat bars of your units don't flash to signal changes in their state [*] No ability to speed up the enemies turn [*] Can't zoom [*] No minimap [/list] [*] Better tutorial and tool tips would be nice, because it takes time to understand: [list] [*] How exactly the squad should be equipped [*] That craftable items rotate after each mission [*] What certain effects do [/list] [*] Overlay bugs appear quite frequently but are easily fixed in most cases [*] Every now and then the map remains black but is fixed by backing out [*] While the music is full of banger, a few more songs would be appreciated [/list]

This game feels like it has everything [h1]Liberty[/h1] There is a dread that comes along with the complete liberty this game provides. You don't get any instruction, just cogs and gears and missions to work through. It feels as though this is what this sort of game is meant to be. The zenith of the medium. [h2]No one has beaten this game[/h2] The pitfall comes in the game's vast difficulty. As of now, the achievement for completing the game on any difficulty has only been achieved by 4.5% of players. You have to want to complete it. There is a beginners grue where you are lost and stumbling and watching your mechanoids get blown to pieces and you want to quit. 95.5% of people did, but what a joy I found finally being able to wrap my head around this game enough to beat it on Normal. Given that it is a turn based combat game, it can be a very relaxed experience. The intensity comes not in the rapidness of it, but in your own inability to wait to see what happens next. Your own desire to rush through turns makes it intense. You strive to command just well enough to slide by. [h3]I love the graphics and how this game feels[/h3] The graphics feel sheen in a wonderful, immersive way. Like all of the best GUI aspects of cruelty squad. Every menu feels awesome and purposeful, and I only wish there was a little more world building to read through. Other games (cruelty squad) let you read about weapons, missions, characters. Mainframe Defenders just provides an extensive pool of items with interesting names and portraits, and it's still really cool. Maybe the lack of information plays into the graphics and lets your imagination dream a little bigger while you play. I tend to wonder quite a bit about the over arching scenario. Are we in space? Jumping between ships and asteroids, obeying some morally ambiguous archotech superintelligence. Fighting off some vague mechanoid infection spreading through, station to station, on an unknown scale. a lot to think about and it just feels right for me, like a cathode ray tube.

Хороший пиксельный рогалик . Великолепная музыка . Приятное изучение вселенной , которую создал разработчик. Каждый из четырех существ набранных вами в отряд имеет четыре модуля под снаряжение , которые предстоит найти и собрать в нужные комбинации по пути ошибаясь и делая ерунду , есть четыре модуля на команду . Удобный интерфейс где видно все и сразу , модификаторы на существах , показатели очков действий и передвежиний , модули влияющие на команду . Играть невероятно удобно и приятно , правда сложность была явно не под меня на нормальной мне так намяли бока без понимания игры и я прошел игру лишь на легкой . получив свою долю удовольствия . Неприятно что многие существа не открыти для доступа в команду и будут постепенно в нее входить как вы наберете нужно количество очков после завершения миссии . такая же беда и с модулями вам нужно выкупить еще порядка 60 штук за 120-200 научного материала каждую иначе в магазине после окончания вашего забега , задолбала метапрогрессия такого плана. Но если вы хотите насладиться атмосферой , пройдя игру один раз , то на это можно закрыть глаза и играть в свою удовольствие двигая фигурку по игровому полю.
