What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
Rest assured that the gameplay is indeed rather challenging...yet also with a refreshing level of depth to it...necessitating the ability to think fast on your feet in order to achieve maximum success.
In fact, they are one of the very few studios who do such games justice in my opinion because their sprite-based pixels feel innately alive and demonstrate a phenomenal sense of immersion for 2D graphics, brimming with a magnetic energy that pulls you right in and won't let go.
The campaign is surprisingly well-written, and developers aren’t afraid to season the game with peculiarly British humour.
The soundtrack is also great, a chiptune rendition of Holst’s famous planet suite, and the sound design in general is top notch.
Furthermore, you have the ability to drag the larger gameplay area around the screen so as to focus on certain sections of it as needed, which is a nice advantage to have...both in planning as well as combat.
