What players say
Players praise the game for taking the Into the Breach and FTL formula and adding unique twists, especially in building one powerful ship. Reviews are split on difficulty: the early game is grueling and restrictive, but late game gets trivial after finding the right upgrades or key cards. A common complaint is the lack of controller support, making it a poor fit for Steam Deck.
