this game didn't click for me, until I realized that it *is* in fact a zachtronics puzzle game, just with a different language, and switched my expectations accordingly. each level is carefully designed to give you a puzzle, and the tools to solve it. how are you going to hold out with almost nothing until reinforcements arrive? how are you going to blitz through this recon mission before *their* reinforcements arrive? how can I get rid of their artillery so my infantry can survive long enough to ambush their armor? there's a bit of wiggle room to fit your own style, but you *will* need to adapt to each scenario. you need to use all the tools the game gives you, not just what worked last time. the only reason these levels don't have a score tracker like classic zachtronics puzzles do is because maximizing score would involve rng manipulation. the rng is here to shift your focus away from micromanagement, and into strategies that mitigate bad luck. the enemy ai does the same, and you *should* be leveraging that behavior for area denial, baiting, etc. it's a really well designed game, and I wish more people could appreciate it. I don't know if I'm just the perfect target audience for this, or if a lot of people expected the usual zachtronics game language and felt too disoriented by the shift.

Mobius Front is a special game, but not everybody will care about it. It's unique. It takes the classic hex-grid Panzer General style of game, which could easily be puzzle-like, and twists that knob far into the puzzle direction. The gameplay is VERY slow and calculated. You will lose units. Recon and caution are crucial. You will get frustrated, but when the game clicks, it clicks. Certain types of units suddenly appear to be much stronger. You realise how much more powerful your arsenal can be to theirs, and you hone strategies on how to crack defensive lines which seemingly appeared impervious. The atmosphere is great. Dashes of Highfleet's diegetic menus, a lurking paranoia and fear, and mysteries that will never quite get resolved linger. It's like World In Conflict's desperation and home turf fears crossed with something like The Twilight Zone. The presentation is genuinely great, such that I would call this artistic in a way that a lot of other wargames aren't. Despite the frustrating shortcomings of the game, it is worth saying that this is a unique product that if you vibe with, you'll really vibe with, and it deserves to exist and especially deserves to be copied and riffed on. Games with this sort of focus really deserve the touches that Mobius Front has.

As the inspo behind firelock 198x, its pretty good. Simply put if the damage WASNT ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ RANDOM and D company missions weren't ♥♥♥♥ AND BALL TORTURE, it would be very fun. its still pretty fun. Its really like alot like Advance wars but with no quirky non-airport knowing kids, and cooler units, and missions that vary from cool to ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ ass

Mobius Front '83 shares some similarity with Advance Wars, Warside and Tiny Metal in that it is also a infantry and vehicle based strategy game. While it lacks some of the charm of the commanders that Advance Wars Dual Strike or Wargroove has and some of the challenge of trying to get a S Rank ala Advance Wars or Fire Emblem it is a solid game. It would be good if the missions were ranked so you could score higher for achieving mission objectives with fewer casualties. Zachtronics has put some care and attention into this game with readable manuals, little mini-games. The other

The presentation, art, aesthetics = WOO. The tutorial was tedious and makes me not want to play the game again. You dully click through a set of instructions and the dummy enemies don't shoot back. Clearly the tutorial could have involved fun "real" mission action, but it doesn't. It was also tedious to move foot-soldiers through a forest one move at a time... Just give us a transport helicopter, there! The gameplay on the surface feels like Advance Wars on GBA in the movement and attacking, but a different style. I wish it had gamepad support so I didn't have to hold my arm up for my mouse. I give a RECOMMEND because it's OK and the developers know what they're doing which is not the case in most games. I encourage the effort, which I do not do after playing most games.
