Gameplay

17 of 59 sampled reviews raised it
I love character development and progression in turn-based RPGs, that offer lots of reasons to play and invite to come back for more: I adore reading character sheets, skills and weapons descriptions, because its exciting to witness my fighters become stronger and watch their skills develop.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
13 of 59 sampled reviews raised it
As for enemies, there are more types than I've been able to count, with an equally varied number of weapons and attacks to defend against.
Characters
Players who bring up Characters mostly praise it.
8 of 59 sampled reviews raised it
The game already offers a nice variety of viking classes (6 at this time) but I wouldn't be surprised if more are added by the time the game is officially released.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
7 of 59 sampled reviews raised it
I'll sum it up by saying that for me, Iron Tides is a very enjoyable tactical game with great graphics and visual effects.
