A methodical, upgrade-focused tactical action game where you take calculated shots across procedurally generated battlefields.

What players say

Players compare it to Into the Breach, XCOM, and Darkest Dungeon, with combat and tactical variety praised but the UI and controls criticized as clunky. Some find the lack of tension from a permanent death mechanic disappointing.
