While Cyber Knights is a tactical turn based RPG, it's not a game you can play exactly like X-Com: it is its own unique blend of genres. The choice of going stealthy or all guns blazing is up to you and your team's capabilities. The learning curve is high, even on normal difficulty - it takes a while to get to grips with the mechanics, and it's a constant battle to prioritise choosing talents, base installations, and upgrades to weaponry and equipment. There's never enough money or time to do everything, and every choice matters. Although still in EA, the game has a lot of content and receives constant updates, and the devs listen closely to feedback. I made a forum post about a specific mission that came out of the blue in early game, and completely overwhelmed me. Not only did the devs respond by patching the game to make sure that mission can't appear until the squad has the necessary power level to compete, but I also received tons of useful (non-spoilery) advice that helped enormously, both from the devs and the community. Can't wait to see how this game progresses. If it receives anything like the long-term support of Star Traders: Frontiers then it will be something really special.

A game I always wanted and didn't know exist. As an avid Turn Based Tactics fan who loved games like XCOM, while also the aesthetics of Cyberpunk, this truly scratches several itches at once. While I will start by saying any words I give will pale in comparison to how utterly involving and enjoyable this game is, I will say simply: It combines the tactics and 'drop in' style of missions of XCOM, while seamlessly combining RPG elements from CRPGs together, without feeling as 'bloated' as XCOM games suddenly become like a chore. The game gives you missions with no precise way to solve them and not, like some games, without a 'preferred' method. Some games state you can 'sneak' or 'fight' through missions, yet always hold a preference to one or the other. This game, unless the mission SPECIFICALLY says 'Combat Required', allows you the player to decide how to solve the mission. There are missions that I have gone in guns blazing and left a trail of bodies in the wake, and others where I have either killed none or very few and felt they were EQUALLY valid. In addition, while a little much at first, hacking is great and has a much more cyberpunk fitting hacking system then, say, actual Cyberpunk 2077. Most importantly, I **LOVE** making characters. While rudimentary, there is enough character customization through clothing, colors, and beyond to make you really get to make and design your recruits from start to end, while an expansive enough talent system to make unique builds. While it is good now, I can only imagine that new weapons and abilities will make this even better out of EA. I cannot put this game down. It's actually fantastic. I heard of these devs through Star Traders, and this game delivered upon my desire in knowing what the audience wants. This barely even feels like an EA game. I am someone who rarely, if ever, gets into Early Access games. If there was ever a game worthy of your support, it's Cyber Knights: Flashpoint.

The model for what EA releases should be. A functional product when made available with a clear roadmap and regular community engagement on the part of the production team. The game itself checks all the fun boxes of classic cyberpunk and plays smoothly at each stage I've experienced it. In essence, it's a hub-based tactical combat game. The supporting systems add depth to the narrative and nothing feels completely unnecessary. As this is still EA, I will reserve final judgment, but the narrative element is likely the final step in a full release and is currently not fleshed out. I do want to shout out their community manager, whoever they are. That person or people post near daily updates for both this and the devs other game, Star Traders. That must take a ton of energy, so props to you, mystery hype crew.

Cyber Knights is a very well thought out cyberpunk-themed squad turn-based strategy game. Somewhat of a cross between XCOM and Phantom Doctrine. Whereas XCOM is more fight oriented and the story is cheesy fantasy and Phantom Doctrine is more sneak/stealth oriented and has a realistic Cold War story, Cyber Knights is a good, fun and immersive balance of both. Set in a cyberpunkish mega-city of the future, you assemble and lead a gang of brawlers, hackers and specialists through storyline and generated missions that can be anything from "go and hack a computer and steal data" to "free a guy from prison" to "assassinate an enemy VIP" to "escort a VIP through enemy territory" and many more. Sometimes you can complete a mission without ever engaging any enemies, other times you have to leave a pile of bodies behind. Like in the other two games I mention and as is standard for such games, you also build and develop your base, manage your equipment and economy, send agents on assignments, recruit operatives, train and develop them, but all also with a cyberpunk classic of cybernetic, chemical and other implants and enhancements. A special aspect is also hacking. Functioning like a sort of minigame, your dedicated hacker plugs into the matrix and moves through it, disabling firewalls, spiking CPUs, downloading files, etc. Another thing that needs to be pointed out is the good and credible writing and storyline. Through dialogues with characters you are drawn into a world of intrigue between representatives of megacorporations, criminal cartels, gangs, corrupt officials, loose cannons and various other dregs of society, each with their own plans goals and and motives. When accepting various missions from any of them, you have to constantly keep in mind, that your decisions can make you friends or enemies, that you can get in over your head and that you're just a small player in a big and complicated megacity. I don't usually buy games on Steam that are not on discount sale, but I made an exception for this game. I followed its development for a while and wanted to support the devs, since they seem very friendly and responsive to the community, implementing good suggestions and ideas as they come along. While already a fully playable and fun Early Access, there are still many more updates and features coming, so if you like this sort of games, this one is definitely worth giving a go.

I was always going to buy this game simply because the Trese Brothers made it. I've had it on my wishlist since they began announcing it, and I gotta say that I'm super happy with what I've played so far. I'm only about 18 hours and like 3 missions in, but it's been great trying to figure everything out. This game is like XCOM2 mixed with Invisible, Inc. There's a stealth component with an actual point to it, lots of abilities combo up with the stealth condition, so you really want to take as much advantage of it as possible. It makes your runs (missions) easier, and the less noise you make on a run, the less Heat you generate. Heat is a mechanic like "threat", where more bad things happen as your heat goes up. So you're rewarded plenty for keeping the stealth up. However, it's almost impossible to get all the mission objectives done with 100% stealth, so there's a lot of strategy in when you have your team "go loud". If you played Star Trader, you already have a grasp on how deep each individual character can get in a Trese Bros game. They all have varied traits and talents that will make them excel in different things. Maybe this game sucks after another 20 hours, but I doubt it. if that's the case, I'll update this review, but I give it 2 thumbs way up.
