Hey! It's been a while! I fell into a deep hole of fighting games (spectating CEO in person, playing Guilty Gear & Persona 4 Ultimax). Also have been playing Fire Emblem Three Houses so expect a post on that eventually!
For today we're focusing on Into the Breach, a 2018 game by Subset Games (creators of FTL). It received a major (free!) update in July adding new content to vary gameplay and found a home on mobile through Netflix games very recently. So a perfect time to cover it! Into the Breach is a time-loop, mech, roguelite, tactics game about executing a constant loop of protecting civilians with fierce & ginormous mechs from large insect monsters. The combination of all maps being 8x8 tiles, lasting 5 turns, and given full information of enemy intent & abilities creates a game about careful risk management. If you like puzzle solving, you'll definitely love this. So dear friends, once more, unto the tactics talk.
