Möbius Front '83

I agree with the other reviews - because the AI has no fog of war you can't set up ambushes and stuff like in other games. The AI just plays super passively which makes the combat very slow.

Some levels in late game play out more, like puzzle, than a strategy game, especially at first few turns, when i.e. you must place your air defense unit in one exact hex, to prevent enemy helicopter rush at first turn. But overall it is a good strategy game with really solid AI, that will not blindly run into your defenses. You will need to move carefully, as rushing blind is heavily punished, but if you have some experience in turn based games, this one is not that hard. Graphics and UI are clear and easy to read (not a common thing, these days), and good looking too. There are only few types of missions, but together with different enemy force composition and map setups it creates enough variability to keep it interesting for most of the playthrough, although few last missions were a drag. Overall, the systems of the game are very ellegant and well thought out,

A difficult strategy puzzle game that is more like chess than xcom

A weird one. The in-menu mini games are more fun than the actual game itself. While the music, visuals, voice acting and story are good, the main hex-based war game could be better. Would probably give this 6/10.

It's Chess with tanks and soldiers. i like it

Really neat military tactics game with a lot of options and depth. I think people mistakenly call it a "puzzle" game - but to me it's a more realistic take on how military operations actually work. No one really rushes into the enemy like in most other military games (Panzer Corps included). Here, you're encouraged to take a more careful, and often defensive approach before you attempt to breach the enemy line. Enjoying it so far!

It's not that I don't like the game, but it's a little too hard for me. I've been stuck on Mission 2-3 and have already replayed it three times. The enemies feel overwhelming, and it almost seems like they're cheating since there doesn't appear to be any fog of war for them. One wrong move can cost you the entire mission. I gave it another try today, but still had no luck. I think this is where I'll end my journey with the game. As for the two minigames, Cribbage Solitaire is difficult but manageable—I was able to win about once every three or four attempts. However, requiring 100 wins for an achievement is just ridiculous. And then there's the Signals Intelligence puzzle, which I never really understood. I had no idea what I was supposed to do or how it worked. Overall, I didn't find the playing experience enjoyable, so I can't recommend the game to anyone else.
