Cyber Knights: Flashpoint

I have been following the Trese Brothers for years back to Android turn-based games. They are clearly fans of any genre they produce games in, showing both appropriate knowledge and understanding of the genre as well as game design. Well worth more than they charge. Excellent turn based team tactics as well as rpg mechanics.

If you enjoy turn based squad tactics, this game is a no brainer. Way more depth than most of the AAA games, with developers that are constantly updating and improving their games. Squad development has so much depth and options, you might wish they had less. Deciding what to shoot for in your build isn't an easy choice. You can play stealthy to try and get in and out quickly, which can involve removing bodies you have eliminated and hacking security systems. You can go in guns blazing, but be prepared for the reinforcements that are called. Storylines and quests from your squads, endless customization, and contacts that you can buy and sell from depending on your reputation with them. Screw someone over, and you can burn a contact. You can make enemies with powerful corporations, or friends. You can find, steal, or hack and download blueprints for powerful weapons, armor, mods and more. Just buy it, and get ready for many hours to be run playing this amazing game.

I bought this game back in 2024 and I didn't get round to playing it up until a couple of weeks ago. My expectations for it were super low coming from the developers of Star Traders: Frontiers. But wow was I surprised, this game is great. It might actually be my favourite in the genre. Having said that it was a very rough start, just like their previous title they have stuffed it with a multitude of mechanics, most of which are unexplained. There is a tutorial, but not only is it not that helpful it actually confuses matters. I think if you'd played this from early access release it wouldn't have been so overwhelming as you'd have been drip fed new mechanics over time. If you force yourself to push past the beginning though it gets much better, you learn which mechanics are important and which you can just ignore. The graphics are pretty bad, all the characters look like they're riding an invisible horse, but it doesn't detract from the gameplay, which as I said is great. The progression system for your base and your characters are in depth and engaging, and there are loads of different weapons and armour to kit out your team. Unfortunately you can generally only have 4 team members take part in a mission, you can't upgrade that like in XCOM, which limits you from trying out new classes as they appear. As a result my team of 4 was virtually unchanged throughout the entire game. The gameplay is highly customisable for instance if you hated the timed missions in XCOM or indeed the timed entire game of XCOM2 you can turn that off completely. You can also make the enemies/events easier or harder at any point. This is a very refreshing change. In summary the game was really enjoyable, I highly recommend it.

I bought this looking for something to fill the void left by the classic Sega Genesis Shadowrun, and it blew my expectations away. Turn-based games aren't usually my thing, but the tactical depth, squad customization, and tension during runs make every mission insanely addicting. It captures that dark, mercenary cyberpunk vibe perfectly while bringing modern strategy mechanics to the table. Highly recommended

Esse jogo é muito bom para quem gosta de combate em turnos. Ele traz vários elementos inovadores e todas as missões têm algum tipo de pressão. O único ponto negativo é que ele não traz nenhum diálogo falado, apenas texto (e muito texto). Vale muito a pena.

Amazing game, as expected from T-Brothers. Job well done Guys.

Je recommande milles fois, après avoir jouer à beaucoup de jeux du genre comme xcom, xenonauts, wartales, rogue trader et bien d'autres c'est ici un des plus complet auxquels j'ai pu jouer. Il offre une grande variétés de personnages et permets d'approcher les missions de plusieurs manières différentes. Après 25h + de jeu je ne trouve les missions toujours pas du tout répétitives, ce qui est quelque chose qu'on peut facilement retrouver dans ce genre de jeu. Pour les +: - Hacking, c'est bien pensé et plutôt sympa - Variété de classes et de talents tous différents - Difficile sans être impossible mais il faut parfois se résoudre à se retirer de missions - Des histoires annexes sympa - Gestion global plutôt rafraîchissante avec un système de contacts pour les missions qui sont lié à la boutique. Ex je peux choisir des missions d'un contact contre un autre le rendant + influent et me permettant d'avoir plus de matos mais je peux me faire des ennemis qui vont chercher à envoyer des assassins pour bousiller mes missions de manière aléatoire. - Les systèmes de l'IA sont variés et l'infiltration est vraiment bien réussi. - On sent que les dev sont investis - Encore bcp d'autres Les -: - Prise en main global facile mais certaines indications et info-bulles manquent, il y en a mais par exemple pour le Lore on a un codex mais c'est un peu embêtant de devoir aller fouiller dedans chaque fois et parfois certaines statistiques ne sont pas vraiment expliqué (pour les clients par exemple). - le tuto: ça rejoint le point précédent mais le système de combat et de hack est très bien expliqué/indiqué mais la base et le système de client pas du tout (j'ai mis 5h avant de me rendre compte que il y avait un système de client/contact et magasin parce que les icônes sont petites en haut à droite de l'écran à côtés du bouton help..) Je n'ai vraiment pas trouvé d'autres points négatifs le jeu est bien foutu et constamment amélioré, FONCEZ
