Feb. 2025

Some, "What to play if you miss XCOM?" videos led me here and I'm glad I found this game. It's a great mix of XCOM-style combat with Invisible Inc.-style stealth mechanics and the mix works! It feels like the best of both worlds. This game really caters to different play styles. If I want to take my time on a map (completionist) or rush a map to get to the next thing, it's my choice. If I want to go full-stealth, push the envelope, or go in guns blazing... that's my choice too. I hope they release a 2nd version of this with improved character customization.

Dec. 2024

phantom doctrine is a isometric espionage tactical RPG that is a tad too long. it's a really cool game and concept but it does wear out its welcome because of the fact that you don't really get anything new introduced after like ten or fifteen hours, which is NOT good when the main story is at least three times that length, if not more. a lot of the stuff you do in the gameplay loop feels extremely tedious and repetitive as a result of the game not introducing anything new. it really captures the idea of a spy thriller decently but there are a decent amount of flaws that make what should've been a 20-30 hour banger of a TRPG into a game that is much longer than that, especially if you're trying to go for 100% completion.

Oct. 2024

Getting into this game is just too unclear for me, it TAKES a lot of want to, so many facets that are not clear or understandable. For example, I still don't fully understand how training works entirely. I will continue to try and slog through it for a bit more, but I kind of regret the purchase and will likely abandon - disappointed as I really like the the genre and concept of the game.

Sept. 2024

Managing spies, infiltrating enemy bases, and uncovering conspiracies. XCOM-style combat with espionage tactics, emphasizing stealth, deception, and intelligence gatthering when using disguises in the Infiltration phase. The body enhancement system is great tool. Nice arsenal and every agent can learn multiple tactics specializations. great turn-based tactical game

Sept. 2024

It's a shame the developers went under because this is a great game and if they had just a little more time to cook this could have been one of the best turn-based strategy games of all time. If you want to play a stealthy XCOM-type game with a Cold War jazz vibe, if you love stringing up documents on the board like Charlie Day, and if you can tolerate it's relatively minor flaws (mainly some UI inconveniences and not enough unique assets) then this is for you! If you pick it up, definitely play on Easy to give you a bit of breathing room until you figure out the flow of the game.
