Finished the game. A cheap game, fairly short, story isn't amazing, gameplay is ok. Its one of those arcade kind of games which you play every once in a while or finish in one sitting and don't take too seriously. You will have average amount of fun playing it. For the price I would say its ok.

Halo: Spartan Assault and Halo: Spartan Strike on sale is an absolute steal! Both Halo's are addictive shooters that retain enough of the look and elements of the Halo universe. The varied miniature missions fit the top-down play style perfectly. These worked great on my steam deck, nice and easy to pick up and play instantly. I recommend if you want some nostalgic Halo :D

Halo: Spartan Assault is a fun and fast-paced top-down shooter that fits seamlessly into the Halo universe and takes place before the events of Halo 4 . The game offers around 4 hours of gameplay, making it a short but enjoyable experience. Considering its affordable price, I would say it offers solid value for fans of the franchise or anyone looking for a quick, action-packed shooter. For the price, it's worth picking up!

A fun little top down shooter combat simulation game in the halo universe. Not a bad game, but far from a strong one. good music though.

Fun little top down shooter set in the Halo universe, nothing special but fun for what it is. It is a 343i era game yet the sights and sounds largely pull from the classic Halo art style and sound design making it feel nostalgic. Not much replay value but for a buck or two it's worth it for Halo fans.
