What players say

Players praise the tactical depth and free-to-play model, but the game is widely reported as buggy: the tutorial often freezes, and crashes are frequent. Linux users face extra hurdles like failing to launch. Reviews are split, with some enjoying the core idea despite the bugs, while others find the bugs ruin the experience altogether.
