How it feels

A deliberate, number-crunching tactical RPG where you carefully position and customize mech squads to overcome punishing alien threats.

What players say

Players praise the deep, massive skill trees and freedom to respec between missions, drawing strong comparisons to Warhammer 40k for its space marine aesthetic. Negatives include a heat mechanic that stunts gameplay, repetitive missions, and rough presentation, with some noting the devs are extremely responsive.
