Chains of Freedom

The game is very similar in terms of mechanics to Mutant Year Zero and Miasma Chronicles. A very well written linear story, with tactical missions lined up in one continuous journey. Combat is good - there is a variety of unique weapons and a lot of special abilities which are the primary way to build the characters. It's interesting that the abilities are assigned by inserting crystals into each character and they can be completely rebuilt at any point in time. So it is possible to freely experiment with character configuration. Overall a very good, slow, tactical game.

Its pretty good.

Despite being short it was quite an effort to finish it. Confusing maps which mainly seemed an excuse to re-use areas. Uninspiring story, acting and characters. Very linear. No strategic layer. Tedious looting. Minimal customization of skills (no xp and the existing system is not very deep). I will recommend it as the designers clearly had some good ideas, but need to build a better game around the interesting combat engine.

Estoy rejugándolo después de un tiempo tras acabarlo y he de decir que en esta segunda ocasión lo estoy disfrutando más que la primera. No es un juego que sobresalga ni gráficamente, ni en su banda sonora o historia, de hecho los diálogos son en inglés, aunque con subtitulos en español.. pese a ello, si te gustan los juegos por turnos de cubrirse, disparar, mover a un compañero, sanar y volver a disparar.. por su precio lo encuentro muy recomendable. Preparate para montar emboscadas, buscar objetos para fabricar armas y disfrfutar!

It is a nice game for those who like this type. The story is somewhat predictable. I am not sure on the replay ability. But do not expect too much, because the game constantly remind you that the enemies are stronger than you.

Очень хороший клон икском. Сюжет достойный, изобильно смазан ВОТ ЭТО ПОВОРОТАМИ (3 штуки да и на самом деле предсказуемыми) Натуральная серая мораль (в игре с ксеноугрозой хах). Прикольные диалоги, персонажи, Очень сбалансированные персы (способности Очень нужные). Красивые противники (люди, ксеносы как ксеносы). Чуть чуть спадает темп в конце, где ВСЕ противники бронированные и начинается не тактика, а колупание. И кучи врагов. Не было бы ксеносов был бы вообще тухляк. Финальный файт кстати тож прикольный. Девок жалко))

Typical tryhard sweaty nerd dev BS. Run around having to scavenge parts to craft to constantly be out of resources (bullets, nades, heals). It's reasonable through the game, until we get to the "ermagerd. totally awesome boss end game. Orbital bombardment to throw them out of position. Chronically low ammo. Then all the cheesy spawny ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ we can have. Along with as many exploding enemies up in your grill as we can." ♥♥♥♥ you devs. I game to have fun and escape. Wasted my morning and few days up to this point on this game. Uninstall and ♥♥♥♥ you. Avoid it unless you want pain for turn based fun.

It's not award-worthy but it's alright. Cons: Grindy towards the end, with big mobs running away and summoning 2 small mobs every turn, very annoying and time-consuming. Stealth feels superfluous and not very polished, no bonus, no diversion, just avoid line of sight. Pros: Weapons diversity Characters aren't bland Crystals combos are fun Variety of tactics to win

Хорошая игра! Сильная тактическая составляющая, есть над чем пораскинуть мозгами (особенно на высоком уровне сложности). Тактика усиливается сильным элементом survival (привет, Residrnt Evil) - патронов мало, оружия тоже, компаньоны, то кидают, то погибают. Каждая пуля, граната и аптечка на счету, баланс сложности выдержан идеально, imo. Прокачка за счёт кристаллов, которые мы собираем по ходу и снаряжаем персонажей. В этой части тоже много комбинаций и вариативности (лично мне особенно понравился кристалл, который восстанавливает 5 AP, когда кто-то из членов партии валит вражину; особенно в концовке игры). Финальный батл вообще эпик - не оторваться. В общем, моё почтение авторам игры, однозначно рекомендую.

Hate to say it but I can't reccomend this. I tried but each day is a pointless grindfest, overwhelm mobs and nonsense mechanics which make the idea of tactics redundant. Cover doesnt seem to work at all, flanking and other typical tactical considerationsn see marginal if they work at all and the wounds to ability to recover and heal especially between missions are too olow in comparison to the numerous fully armoured and better specced enemies you face with better weapons you for some reson cannot pick up after defeating them. forget about the poor voice acting and wafer thin plot I didn't expect much, but this hasnt lasted 3 days before im deleting it. Sadly I bought it on steam sale and could not return it. I supprt indie games which are often far better than AAA games (like the brilliant wartales) but this one, its a miss,
