A deliberate and tactical turn-based strategy game about managing technology and building giant mechs to fight machines in a tense wartime economy.

What players say

Players describe a modest turn-based tactical game about mechs that mixes X-Com and Battletech ideas on tiny battlefields. Opinions split on polish: some praise the physics-based combat and research options, others say it launched without basic quality-of-life features like camera rotation and a load button, though updates have addressed some complaints.
