What players think
The recurring themes across 175 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
In a nutshell: Doorkickers + XCOM = a surprisingly creative game with fascinating unit design, a morale system that has your units feeling like people instead of obedient robots, and genuinely fun gameplay.
When they're unmoving, the graphics in Strain Tactics look rather nice.
Many of the missions are too easy once you play them and memorize the enemy strategy.
Theme by theme
Every theme is scored by what reviewers actually said about it, not just whether they recommended the game.
Ranked by how many sampled reviews mention each topic. A topic sits in a column by what reviewers said about that topic; the percentage beside it is how many of them recommended the game anyway.
