After 14 hrs of play time, here is the updated review: Pros: - Good game play, campaign is addictive and challenging - Campaign's play time is like 10 to 20 hours if you want to complete the hard difficultly, worth the price IMO - Art style is as good as always, the One Man Left style, like it - The tempo is fast and length is just right, length for a game is around 10 to 20 minutes - Running nicely on Steam Deck, but need a bit of tweak for control so you can utilize the trackpad Cons: - So far, I can't find any online quick match - The control design is very easy to miss send the move commend, even after my 14 hrs of game play, I still keep moving the minis that I don't want it to move - Keys can't be re-assign, but the default keys for keyboard isn't so great - Not fully supports mixed input for KB/M and controllers, so for Steam Deck, it'll be awkward trying to use the right trackpad as mouse (I uploaded a full KB/M config for Steam Deck so people can use the right trackpad as mo...

Campaign is fun so far, and I'm enjoying the multiplayer with a friend. Really scratches the Outwitters itch. We will pay for a mobile version 🙏 Issues/Suggestions as of 3/7/24 - Make it easier to deselect a minion to reduce accidental commands (undo button helps thankfully) - Multiplayer matches end in a weird/buggy way (killing all the opponent's minions, but having to walk back to their totem?) - Increase turn time limit and allow for infinite (helpful for friends playing and learning game together) - Make it faster/easier to do rematches with friends (maybe by matchmaking from friend's username - this is how it's done in Antihero for example)
Having a great time!!! Just needs a leaderboard.
Awesome fun, especially if you like strategy and turn based tactics games. Particularly if you previously played Outwitters, by the same developer. I wish it were easier to play with other people online though.
Highly recommend to get that quick fix if you love tactics style games like FF, BG3, or Mario + Rabbids. I bought it on Nintendo Switch too so I can play with my sons! (I am playing on Steamdeck OLED with no issues.) I love the animation (unreal engine is so smooth!) and characters - all unique and fun to experiment with. As a Souls-fan, I also appreciate that the main game isn't handing you wins but leaves you experimenting with strategies. I look forward to more world building from this team.
