What players say

94% of 19,784 reviews are positive · 88% of 92 in the last 30 days

Players praise the focused, positioning-based combat, replayability, and suitability for short sessions. The most common complaints are that it feels more like a rigid puzzle than a conventional tactics game, and that randomized spawns can make some losses feel unavoidable.
