This game is a masterpiece of emotions. As of writing this review i have officially 100% all the achievements currently available in the game (future DLC not included), and I can vouch that this game is one of a kind. The music in this game always gets me hyped up in the best way possible. The game play loop makes me want to play just one more night, just one more run. Yes, this game can be incredibly frustrating at times with certain RNG results or with runs sometime taking up to 8-9 hours on the hardest map, However this is a game i would recommend over and over again to anyone who loves turn based strategy games that reward well though out plans, character growth, and permanent upgrades across runs. 10/10

glad I didn't listen to the negative reviews, this game is awesome. SOLID turn based tactics. Very much a hard and punishing game that rewards persistence. its one of those rogue-likes that forces you to die/lose in order to upgrade the meta progressions, but not in a punishing sort of way. I lose the first 2 nights on the first map but absolutely crushed it on the 3rd after getting a feel for the game and getting some meta-upgrades. it's not a puzzle-like tactics game; its a true tactics and strategy game. if you don't know how to think and plan ahead you will lose. It forces you to work with what you have and plan for the mid and late game early on. there are a lot of variables when it comes to your unit roster, weapon selection, armor options, trinkets & potions. there are no classes and each hero is randomly generated with stats, race bonus, and default loadout; sometimes the default loadout is NOT suitable for the generated hero and you must swap gear. the music is killer and ramps up as things get more and more hectic. sometimes you look at the screen and think "wow, there is no way I am getting through this" then the distortion kicks in on the guitar and you get locked in. games are LONG, we're talking 2-5 hours per map. it's heartbreaking when you lose hours of progress to bad luck, bad planning, or sometimes bad rng... if you want an easy game look elsewhere. I was hesitant to buy it due to the negative reviews and waited till it was on sale; but I would have gladly paid full price. I hope to get at least 100 hours out of this title.

This game has almost everything I could possibly want. Awesome music, incredible sound design, hordes of interesting and well-designed enemies, and tons of different, unique weapons to combat them with. It’s also got thoughtful resource management, surprisingly in-depth strategy, steady progression, and inherent challenge without being lazy or overwhelming. It’s quickly become one of my favorites. But there’s one balancing issue that I hate, hate, HATE and it’s the perk trees. Heroes have access to a random and limited set of perk trees; some are randomly available and only have one path, but other trees are guaranteed for each hero yet come with one of two options along each tier. There’s a lot of varied and interesting perks you can get, but you never know which ones might be available for a given hero. Which would be fine, but it makes developing synergies a goddamn nightmare. “Oh, this hero has a quirk that lets them do extra poison damage? Too bad they don’t have the poison perk tree.” “This hero has tons of health and would make for an awesome tank! Doesn’t it suck that their melee perk tree doesn’t have a single tank-related perk?” Furthermore, while the variety of weapons is truly a highlight, it can be a devil to find the weapons that would make a team member effective. If the poison quirk hero above doesn’t have the tree and you can’t find poison weapons, well, he’s not dealing poison damage in that game and essentially has a useless quirk, even if it was supposed to be positive. The same goes for stuns, blocking, debuffs, speed-based weapons, and tons of other mechanics that make the game fun but difficult to utilize to their full potential. I’ve already spent hours in this game customizing my heroes and trying to min-max them, which has honestly been the most fun I’ve had in a game in a long time. But the reliable unreliability in developing proper synergies is a major sore spot for me.

I've tried it. The mechanics are good. It has many of the elements I like in a roguelite, including ample metaprogression (I like it done this way, many don't). But I'm not continuing. The theme and aesthetic just aren't doing it for me. This is purely subjective, and I'm not going to penalize the game for that.

Pretty good turn based tactical combat roguelite, with some simple base building. PROS: There are a lot of granular variety in terms of weapons and their attacks. You can mix match a lot of them and find really great synergies. Moderately challenging at base difficulty, and the game does a good job into easing you to most of the game mechanics. CONS: It's kinda repetitive, you have 4 towns in the base game, and each town is about 10 days of fighting, with the 10 day culminating in a boss battle. Every town will have the heroes reset from level 1 and all new gears. The problems is, the fight each day took quite a long time, and it's really the same throughout, mission objectives or map varieties don't really change. A fight each day will last at least an hour or more, so one city will take at least 10 hours to clear, and if you die, you start from the beginning of day 1 again. After 3 cities of increasing difficulties, I don't find anything different in the tactics I need to approach everyday except the boss fights, and even then, boss tactics remain similar, kill the boss on the turn it spawns, that's it. I know things probably gets even harder later, but so far I got S rank for all the days and cities. Damage is king and don't get hit is the strat. It's gotten to a point that I don't even feel like doing the last and 4th city, even though I have bought the Drwarves DLC. So TLDR, it's a fun game with really interesting mechanics that has tons of potential, unfortunately it has way too little variance in terms of missions that it gets repetitive fast.
